We Will Try Your Case To A Jury If Required.
We carefully screen our cases to ensure we can help you. We know that there is stress and expenses involved in being part of a lawsuit. When we take your case, we prepare for trial. While most cases settle without a trial, we know that insurance companies only pay what your case is worth when the risk of trial make them do so. We never file cases to settle them and we want insurance companies and defense lawyers to know that we will ask a jury at trial to fully compensate you for all of the injuries and losses you have suffered. When you speak to a lawyer you are considering ask about their jury trial experience. Ask us, too.
