is not their strength. We are different. We try cases.

About Our Cases

It’s no secret that most civil cases do not go to trial. Most cases are settled. Only if they are not settled, or dismissed, are they tried. Trial lawyers with experience are more important than ever because fewer lawyers have the opportunity to try cases before civil juries. All lawyers went to law school, but not all belong in court. The prospect for trial is frightening for many lawyers, particularly if trial is not their normal activity or if a case is headed to federal court. If your lawyer doesn’t try cases, it affects the ability to settle cases favorably because there is no threat of trial. The other lawyers know whether your lawyer can try the case, and use that knowledge to advantage. Whether your lawyer can try the case has a definite impact on the case, whether it is tried or settled.
