QUESTIONNAIRE
We had a case where the insurance company offered nothing so we filed a lawsuit; we settled the case for $1.2-million-dollar settlement. It turns out the defendant driver was on meth when he hit our clients vehicle.
How did you build a successful practice?Through leverage, delegation, and bringing the right people together. A leader puts the right team together by hiring the right people, for the right positions, doing the right things.
