Before You Call

What We Want You to Know

Find the right attorney for you.

We will give you our honest opinion of your case. If the right choice for you is another firm, we are genuinely glad you found them. We want you to feel good about whoever represents you.

Your life comes first.

Should you quit? Take a treatment? Accept an offer? We will explain your options and what each could mean, but life decisions are yours, and your life comes before the case.

Straight answers, always.

We will tell you what we think, plainly, from the first call to the last.

What to expect on updates.

Cases take time. Outside active negotiations, the back and forth with the other side usually happens every month or two, so updates every two to three months are normal. You can reach us any time by text, call, or email, and we will get back to you promptly. When there is real news, you will hear it from us.

Honest advice on every offer.

Whether a settlement makes sense depends on things most people never see: whether the other side can actually pay, the timing of negotiations, the risk of trial and the two to four years it can take to get there, and what the money would mean for your life. When we recommend taking an offer, or recommend turning it down and continuing to push, you get our honest assessment, built on years of experience. We do not like leaving money on the table, and we will tell you just as plainly when pushing further is not worth it.

They kept me updated, answered my questions, and really made me feel like my case mattered.
