While over 90% of cases settle without a trial, the best way to settle a case is to be prepared for trial. Our office has over 35 years of experience in getting complex cases ready for trial, and the experience of actually taking hundreds of cases to trial where settlement was not achieved for reasons beyond our control. When the opposition knows you are not afraid to go to trial, and that you are ready for trial, it facilitates settlement, and better outcomes if your case actually goes to trial.
