Our core values are service to our clients, service to our teammates, service to the community, faith, accountability, leadership, and loyalty. These values drive all of our decisions.
Personal Injury Attorneys play a pivotal role in managing the entire case handling process, overseeing tasks from initial filing through to verdict. Their responsibilities extend to handling serious and catastrophic cases. Attorneys ensure compliance by staff with standard operating procedures (SOPs). Attorneys report to supervising attorneys and/or the firm's partners, litigation attorneys hold supervisory roles over litigation assistants, paralegals, and case managers.
Key duties involve screening potential litigation clients, conducting case law research, and managing case records while negotiating with insurance companies. Attorneys are actively engaged in drafting pleadings, motions, and discovery documents, as well as preparing for and participating in mediations. Other responsibilities include interviewing and deposing witnesses, advocating in trials, and preparing clients for depositions. Additionally, litigation attorneys provide counsel to clients, conduct investigations into coverage issues, and engage in medical management educating clients. We maintain a collaborative approach, working closely with supervising attorneys to ensure the effective and comprehensive handling of litigation matters.
