What we try
If your situation isn’t listed, ring anyway. We will tell you what it is worth and whether it needs a courtroom, including when the answer is no.
- 01
Catastrophic vehicle collisions
Commercial trucking, multi-vehicle and wrongful-death collisions. The cases where the carrier’s own lawyers arrive within hours and we need to be there first.
- 02
Industrial and site injury
Scaffold and machinery cases against general contractors and equipment makers. Comp pays a fraction; the third-party claim is where the real recovery lives.
- 03
Premises and negligent security
Owners and managers who knew and did nothing. These turn on maintenance logs and prior complaints, and those only surface in discovery.
- 04
Wrongful death
Tried when they must be tried. Families are not asked to relive it in a deposition until we are certain the case needs it.
“The insurer offered forty thousand and told me that was the ceiling. Okonkwo filed. Eleven months later a jury came back with just under two million.”Ray M., commercial truck collision
How a case gets tried
Almost everyone who calls us is frightened of a courtroom. Most never see one, but the preparation for it is what pays.
- 1
The case review
Free, unhurried, and honest about what your case is worth. If it belongs with a different firm we will say so on that call.
- 2
Discovery
Depositions, maintenance records, black-box data, internal email. This is the stage that separates a nuisance offer from a real one.
- 3
The demand
Everything discovery produced, put in front of the carrier with a number attached. Most cases end here, at a price set by what we found.
- 4
Trial
If the number is not serious, we pick a jury. Thirty-one times so far, which is precisely why the numbers usually are serious.
