How matters are staffed
A case is handled by the attorney whose name is on the case. Every matter has a responsible attorney who stays directly involved from intake through resolution, rather than being passed to a case manager after the first meeting.
Our attorneys consult with one another as needed. Our paralegals support intake, records, discovery, filings, and scheduling.
A message sent through the site is read by an attorney and a paralegal before anyone replies. A paralegal usually follows up by phone for more detail, or sends a short questionnaire.
