While the timeline for this analysis is generally consistent, we prioritize open communication throughout the process. We keep clients informed, explaining complex legal concepts, key milestones, and objectives in their cases.
This transparency fosters trust and empowers clients to be active participants, enabling them to make informed decisions as they navigate their legal journeys towards resolution and justice.
Initial Meeting
Every case begins with a detailed client meeting to document our client's viewpoint of the incident, discuss the injuries and/or damages suffered, illuminate other relevant facts, and begin to lay the groundwork for a solid legal case.
Pre-Suit Analysis
Our team gathers evidence, consults experts, and reconstructs accidents to build a bulletproof case against the responsible party.
Aggressive Negotiation & Trial Preparation
We negotiate with insurance companies and corporate defense teams, but we never settle for less than what you deserve—and we prepare for trial from day one.
