Necessarily, there is an unavoidable uncertainty in trying a lawsuit for you. Our objective is to obtain adequate compensation for you. Since our firm has represented thousands of injured people during the past thirty years, we have developed a wealth of experience in trying and evaluating cases. As you might expect, the legal proof and strength of your case affects the value of any judgment. The severity and permanency of any injuries, together with the costs of medical treatment, and wage and income loss all enter into our assessment of the value of your case.
Most cases settle.
Insurance companies conduct investigations just as we do. Under the rules of discovery following the filing of a lawsuit, we can learn as much about the other side's case as they can about ours. By virtue of this exchange of information, the lawyers from both sides will have a very accurate prediction of what the evidence will be in most cases. Insurance companies will compare your case to similar cases in our vicinity and nationwide. The lines of communication between you and our office for negotiated settlements always will remain open.
