Questions & Answers

How did you build a successful practice?

A successful practice requires an attorney who is dedicated to resolving your case with the best possible outcome for you! That means the lawyer should be available to answer your questions, the lawyer should know the in and outs of your case, and the lawyer should aggressively fight for you. When the lawyer does these things, clients usually have very good outcomes.

What should clients look for in a lawyer?

Clients should do four main things when deciding to hire a lawyer: 1. Ask people they know who they recommend; 2. Look at the lawyers website and other online resources; 3. Meet with more than one lawyer to make sure the person you hire is a good fit.

How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?

To successfully handle a case, a lawyer needs to know the players (opposing counsel, judges, law enforcement) in order to effectively craft a winning strategy. Only an attorney with strong roots in the community can accomplish that.

What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?

In an free phone consultation, we can answer general questions to help provide peace of mind, we can provide an outline of how we would handle the case, and we can help explain what the next steps in the case will be.

What information do you need in a free phone consultation?
