In an era in which approximately 95% of civil cases are eventually compromised and settled, it is more important than ever for your lawyer to have actual courtroom experience in which witnesses are examined and cross-examined, arguments are presented, and tactical decisions are often made without a safety net. Only a lawyer with actual trial experience can command the best results in your case.
