Impacting Results: Why Having a Trial Firm Matters

There is a big difference between a “billboard” law firm and a trial firm.

Today, most personal injury law firms prioritize taking a high volume of cases. These firms avoid taking the more demanding route, often at the expense of their client’s best interests. This model is driven by cheap, easy settlements, limited resources, and a lack of litigation and trial experience.

When a law firm lacks the capacity to present a credible threat of going to trial and winning, it can significantly weaken their client’s position. It is as the saying goes, “all bark, no bite.”

SHK is different. Our willingness and readiness to take cases to trial, backed by a proven courtroom track record, levels the playing field.

Our reputation and success record have been a powerful tool in negotiations, causing large insurance companies, corporations, and defense lawyers to offer our clients top value settlements to avoid the risk of going to trial.

 

It’s all about leverage.
