As a licensed attorney, It has always been my practice to thoroughly investigate each claim and provide an honest case assessment to each potential client. I begin preparing for trial before a lawsuit is even filed, building my client's damages case and finding any evidence of negligence from the initial investigation through case discovery and motion practice if a lawsuit is commenced. My mission in every case is to achieve the best possible result for my client, whether by way of settlement or jury verdict, no matter the potential value of the case. Over the years, FLO has recovered millions for its clients, and there is no fee in any personal injury case unless there is a recovery in the client's favor. While the vast majority of injury claims will settle, some will go to trial. Civil trials in negligence cases are inherently dangerous for both sides. Juries are unpredictable and trials are expensive due to expert witness fees and other costs. To make matters worse, it can take two or three years for a case to reach trial from the time a case is filed in court. Mediation is often utilized in an effort to avoid trial, and usually results in a settlement. However, there are times when a trial simply becomes necessary in order to put the evidence before a jury when negotiations have broken down. Decades of experience, both as counsel for injured clients and as an insurance defense litigator, have taught me how to successfully reach across the aisle to my opponent in search of a reasonable resolution, whether fighting for an injured client or defending the interests of an insurer.FLO maintains longstanding relationships with many of the Commonwealth's top personal injury firms. When circumstances require due to a conflict of interest, I provide personalized case referrals to such firms.We also provide protective legal services to local businesses including employment contracts, confidentiality and non-compete agreements, etc.
