After a serious injury it’s important to hire a board-certified attorney because they have the experience to properly investigate the claim. They have the resources to help the clients through the recovery process and, ultimately, if a lawsuit is required, a board-certified personal injury attorney will know the judges, will know the defense attorneys, and have a reputation that they will try this case and that prompts settlement discussions and often cases settle. In our practice probably 98 percent of our cases settle before a jury verdict. And the benefit to that is sour clients then get to control the outcome of their case. They are accepting something knowing what they’re going to get as opposed to having a jury of 12 people decide their fate for them and take that control away from their clients. So a board certified attorney brings the case to the courthouse but part of what we do is really maximize our clients settlement opportunities and protect them from a jury verdict that they can’t control.
