well I think what makes my firm
0:06
different from other law firms is that
0:08
we are a boutique firm and of course I
0:11
am the head of the firm we handle all of
0:14
our own cases in other words we take our
0:16
cases in we take them through the uh
0:19
stage of of injury recovery with the
0:22
client we communicate with the
0:24
Physicians we prepare demand package
0:26
after the client has completed treatment
0:29
we attempt to negotiate settlement with
0:31
the insurance carrier if we’re
0:33
unsuccessful we also take the case into
0:36
litigation and prosecute the case all
0:38
the way through litigation through trial
0:40
so and by the way that’s done by me I
0:43
handled the negotiations with the
0:44
insurance company I also handled the
0:47
litigation of the case I also try the
0:50
case so the difference between our firm
0:53
and a lot of the firms that you see
0:55
locally on billboards is that we don’t
0:57
have case
0:58
managers that are not attorneys that try
1:01
to negotiate claims I negotiate the
1:03
claims so I’m a 50-year lawyer and I’ve
1:06
dealt with insurance carriers for all
1:08
that time so the client receives the
1:11
benefit of all that experience in
1:13
dealing with insurance companies and
1:15
also because I’ve established a
1:17
reputation with insurance companies they
1:19
know I’m aggressive and I’ll pursue the
1:21
claim so it makes it easier I think to
1:24
negotiate a fair settlement for the
1:25
client prior to litigation if that’s
1:28
possible but quite obviously if the
1:31
insurance carrier doesn’t want to pay
1:32
the claim or they have reasons why they
1:34
are not interested in playing paying the
1:36
claim it’s my job as the attorney for my
1:39
client to take the case all the way
1:41
through the system and of course I’ve
1:43
done that many many
1:48
times the thing you have to avoid is
1:51
relying upon things like advertisements
1:54
Billboards television ads radio ads
1:57
because quite frankly the attorneys that
1:59
place those ads generally have little or
2:01
no involvement with their clients or
2:03
their cases they are businessmen and
2:06
they have people working on the files
2:08
whether they be case managers if the
2:11
case goes in litigation there may be an
2:12
associate attorney assigned to the case
2:14
or even worse they basically take cases
2:17
in if they can’t sell them with the
2:19
insurance company they refer the cases
2:21
out to attorneys that the client may not
2:24
even know well the difference with the
2:26
Galler Law Firm is that when they come
2:28
to see us we take them from the
2:31
beginning of the claim to the end of the
2:32
claim and they don’t go elsewhere
