  • Obtain any evidence that can be used to prove liability, including accident reports, statements from eyewitnesses, previously unobtained video footage, and more.
  • Work with medical professionals to treat their client and help calculate the client’s total expected losses caused by the incident.
  • Negotiate with every party involved, including aggressive insurance carriers, to resolve the case successfully for the client.
