If the questions are legal in nature, they will advise your lawyer who will consult with you. Your lawyer will discuss valid settlement offers with you in every instance, and no settlement offer will be accepted without your approval. Your lawyer will explain clearly to you the factors which play a part in evaluating a claim. Your lawyer will make recommendations to you and try to clearly explain to you the reasons for the recommendations. Since our lawyers have experience in settling cases and know what juries and judges will generally award in a similar case, clients usually follow our recommendations.
Legal assistants are highly qualified and experienced members of our litigation team.
They help our lawyers prepare lawsuits by doing investigations, medical research, legal research and other important support work. They cannot give legal advice and you should not ask them for such advice. When it is necessary for you to have legal advice, the assistant will consult with a lawyer immediately. It is to your benefit to work with them.
