"TV Lawyers Advertising For Cases They Will Never Handle! Make Sense? Sounds Crazy? ...... Read On! " 

The New Year is upon us and you might notice a new onslaught of TV advertising for clients injured beyond the usual automobile cases. I am talking about individuals who have been injured by hip replacement or certain medications, the names of which, I can't even begin to pronounce. If you look at the TV lawyers commercials they indicate a willingness to undertake representation in such cases. In reality they are engaging in a practice known as "farming out" which means they send the cases to another firm in exchange for a referral fee from a national firm that in reality handles these cases to a conclusion. The practice is deceptive since you go to one lawyer and wind up with another. It should make you think twice about going to such lawyers for ANY CASE! Some TV lawyers even refer out a majority of their clients in all cases who do not take an early offer. Sad but true. Don't get caught in that web. Call me and get personal attention.
