Why Choose A Trial Lawyer?

Most clients prefer to settle disputes confidentially, outside of court. However, the fastest way to secure a fair out-of-court settlement is by hiring a lawyer with a strong trial reputation. Lawyers without trial experience are often not taken seriously by corporations or insurance companies. By hiring a trial lawyer from the start, you keep your options open to settle or go to trial without needing to change attorneys.

Yes, sometimes, especially if the injuries are not significant, or if the available insurance is limited. Before doing so, however, be sure to consult with a lawyer. Most will talk things over without charge and advise you whether it makes to settle on your own.

Some cases can be resolved within a few months of the injury or accident. But in our experience, most cases resolve between 18 months and 3 years from the date we file them.

Find an attorney with an excellent record of verdicts in a case similar to yours. You don’t want your lawyer to be learning “on the job.”

The decision about hiring a lawyer shouldn't wait too long. It’s best to have an attorney begin work while the evidence is fresh, before witnesses scatter or forget, and before documents disappear or are destroyed.

Under the contingency fee agreement, those costs are paid by the attorney, not the client. The attorney is reimbursed only if there is a settlement or a judgment in the client’s favor.

Moss Landing Vistra Power Plant Fire Investigation

Investigations show the Moss Landing BESS used NMC batteries, which are more prone to thermal instability than safer LFP batteries. These batteries stored improperly in enclosed spaces increased fire risks. Additionally, the outdated fire suppression system failed to stop the fire.
