The simple answer is that it doesn’t. What Northern Michigan needs is a different law firm. A firm that values the lawyer client relationship over fees. A firm that takes the time to make sure that the relationship between lawyer and client takes priority over a firm’s need to fill its coffers. A firm that is committed to doing the legwork before jumping into something as serious as a lawsuit.
We want to work with people that want to work with us. If we realize off the bat that we’re not a good fit, we will take the time to advise you on where you might find an attorney that suits your needs. If your issue is not our specialty, we’ll refer you to where you can find that specialized representation. If you don’t feel comfortable with our representation we will send you on your way with a hand-shake and our genuine blessing.
We take pride in getting things right from the start. If there are issues with your case we will tell you up front. If there are alternatives to litigation, we will seek them out and present them to you from the get go. We will never pressure you into making a decision, your case is your case.
What truly sets us apart is the effort that we will put into case at the outset. This starts with creating a strong relationship and continues into our development of your litigation strategy. We will leave no stone unturned and craft our efforts to prepare for every contingency and prevent any surprises.
In order to provide the best representation available, we insist upon full disclosure from our clients. If there are facts pertaining to your case that you are uncomfortable discussing with us, we cannot represent you. In spite of a client’s belief or hope that a fact may be immaterial, we must insist that this is our determination to make.
We recognize that you may be dealing with something traumatic and you need help when you come into our office. We will strive to provide you with a predictable road map forward to provide you some semblance of certainty in uncertain times. If you are facing something that you cannot shoulder alone, give us a call, there is no cost for our consultations. Give us a call today.
