There are many steps to the legal process and our experienced legal team will prepare you for every single step including:
The decision to settle or proceed to court is entirely yours. If an offer to settle is made, our lawyers will review it with you and depending on your wishes, may work to negotiate a larger amount. However, if you would prefer to go to trial our legal team will do everything in our power to fight for the compensation you deserve before a judge and jury.
Criminal charges and civil lawsuits are entirely separate. For example, if you were hit by a drunk driver, the driver may be charged with driving while under the influence, reckless driving, and other criminal charges. While the physical evidence collected by the police may help to support your civil case, the outcome of their criminal case doesn’t impact your ability to move forward with your complaint.
