​There is an ever, growing distinction between a “litigator’ and a “trial lawyer.”
On the one hand, there’s an increasing breed of younger litigators, who spend far more of their time behind a keyboard than in an actual courtroom, usually sending serial emails, often times needlessly increasing their clients’ legal bills with no upshot reward, resulting far too often in the client getting very little or sometimes even nothing at all to show for that investment of time. 
On the other hand, a true, trial lawyer is fearless, goal-oriented, investing time that is anchored entirely to the client’s mission, and that courtroom knowledge and expertise increases the value to the client, regardless of whether the case is successfully resolved either by a settlement or a favorable verdict at trial.
Our law firm has tried and will continue to try the largest and most complex of lawsuits, especially those that are high risk and high reward—that most lawyers would shy away from—and we do so with excitement and without fear. Because our lawyers work our clients’ cases up as if they are going to trial no matter what, that investment of energy and time increases the risk to our opponents, with the end result being that our clients’ disagreements usually get resolved for their maximum value—with or without a trial—either in court or out of court.  If the case cannot be successfully settled and must in fact be tried to a court or a jury, our lawyers are prepared and our clients know exactly what to expect.
