Ok Outlawyer, I want you to represent me.
What’s next?

The most common questions I get from a new client are:
‍
(1) What is my claim worth?
(2) How long is it going to take? 

These are excellent questions.  The truth is “I don’t know.”Each injury case is unique and progresses on its own time table.  My goal is to make sure you have completed all necessary medical treatment, that you have been provided with a firm prognosis from your doctors and that my office has completed an analysis and accounting of all your out of pocket expenses and lost wages so I can provide you with my best legal opinion of a range I believe your injury claim to be worth based on my experience in this field of law. 

You can’t place a value or timetable on something before considering all pieces to the puzzle.  Believe me, it would be much easier to run my law practice if I knew

(1) What a new case is worth.
(2) When the new case would resolve. 

I don’t make an attorney fee until I collect for you, so we all want things to move as quickly as possible. 

But case resolution “happens when it happens.”  Be wary of any attorney who tells you they can answer these questions and predict the future.  A law license does not come with a crystal ball.

Some injury claims may be able to resolve without the need for a lawsuit.  If this is possible, I will work to obtain you a fair and reasonable amount.  If a fair and reasonable amount cannot be reached, a lawsuit may be necessary. 

Other injury claims may require an immediate lawsuit for a variety of reasons.  The important thing to remember is that, as a victim, the courthouse is there for you. 

I love the courthouse.  The Outlawyer will protect you inside the courthouse and be your voice for justice.

Please read through the website and look at the Outlawyer areas of practice. You can always count on me to “shoot you straight” on the value of your claim and whether pursuing your claim is in your best interest.
