My philosophy is to obtain a fair settlement for my clients through negotiating as many of the issues in controversy as possible. Not all issues can be resolved through negotiation; and often litigation and the resulting order from the judge in your case may be required to produce the desired result. Because even limited litigation, must involve a cost benefit analysis; I endeavor to make my clients aware of the strengths and weakness of their position taking into consideration their budget, – before engaging in costly Discovery(depositions, subpoenas, etc.) or court litigation
