Mission
Our mission is to vigorously and aggressively represent our clients to the utmost of our capabilities. We honor the civil justice system. We speak the truth. In every case, we strive for excellence.
Excellence
We seek excellence in the practice of law. We are not satisfied or pleased with mediocrity. We provide attention to every detail of our client's case. We strive for excellence both inside and outside the courtroom. We believe excellence is achieved through hard work, perseverance and an unwavering commitment to the client.
Dedication
We believe in our clients. We fight for our clients. We work tirelessly to ensure that our clients receive the highest and best recovery their case deserves. Our clients have been legitimately injured through no fault of their own. They deserve and need our help.
Work Ethic
Our clients deserve the best representation they can find. Our clients trust us to help them in a very difficult time in their lives. It is a responsibility we carry with us every day. We respect this commitment by giving every case our complete dedication and commitment. We are pro-active. We are hard working. And, we will do whatever it takes to make certain our clients receive the highest and best recovery possible.
Sometimes, this means that we must proceed to trial. When that happens, we spend the time it takes to prepare the case. We investigate our own cases. We personally photograph the accident scene. We personally interview the witnesses. We take a personal role in preparing trial exhibits. We prepare our clients for trial. We explain the process. We tell them what to expect. We pay close attention to every detail.
Compassion
Many times, our client's lives have been altered forever through no fault of their own. We strive to understand our clients and their families. We feel it is important for us to understand the trauma our clients have endured so that we can tell their story. We feel the only way to obtain a maximum recovery is to truly understand, empathize and explain our client's pain. It is our client's story- their life. We strive to tell it well.
Honesty
We speak the truth- to our judges, to our adversaries and to our clients. We tell our clients the truth about their cases. We explain the law. We explain the process. We answer tough questions.
Integrity
We represent legitimate clients who have been legitimately injured. We speak the truth. We respect the civil justice system. We are professionals. We are compassionate. We can be trusted.
Communication
We communicate with our clients at each stage of the legal process. Our clients expect straight answers to hard questions. We provide answers to our client's questions in straight forward and understandable terms. In fact, we invite our clients to call us anytime they have a question about their case. We strongly feel that this philosophy reduces stress on our clients because they have confidence that their case is given priority. In turn, this philosophy encourages our clients to trust our judgment. We believe that mutual trust results in success.
Specifically, we tell our clients what to expect. We tell our clients how long their recovery may take. We tell our clients when their claim is filed. We tell our clients when an answer is filed. We copy our clients with every piece of communication to and from our office, including letters, email messages and even telephone conversations. We strive to return our calls on the same day. We strive to return our email messages on the same day.
During settlement negotiations, we explain the process. We involve our clients at each stage of negotiations. We provide our clients with our legal recommendations.
Trial Attorneys
We always seek to quickly recover a settlement for our clients. In fact, the vast majority of our cases settle. However, there are times when the insurance company refuses to offer the highest and best recovery for our client's claim. When that happens, we are not satisfied and we usually recommend that our clients proceed to trial. This philosophy separates our firm from others.
We believe that it is our reputation on the line each time we try a case. We meticulously prepare all of our cases for trial. We believe there is only one way to try cases- to win. We believe winning requires excellence. We believe winning requires attention to the smallest detail. We believe winning requires aggression- that is both civil and professional.
