An Important Difference
A federal jury in Denver recently awarded a client of mine $2.7 Million for a trip and fall after another law firm had the case and decided not to pursue it. That was not a settlement. That was a jury verdict. The client in that case received no offer of settlement at all from the insurance company before she hired me. We believed that case needed to go to trial to get full value for the loss because we saw what made that case valuable when the insurance company, and even the previous lawyers, did not.
Injured clients recover more money for their losses when a trial lawyer can find, and show others, what makes the client and their loss unique, or at least different. However, law firms that operate on large volumes can make more money by handling more cases per year, which often means doing the same thing for all of them as fast as they can to make space for the next case. Ready Law does not operate by settling hundreds of cases that are all handled the same way. I have made a career of fighting for people in court, and I have appeared in courtrooms all over the state of Colorado. That fact means better settlements for people who do not need to go to trial, and better verdicts for injured clients who do.
If you think your case might benefit from someone who can think about what makes your case unique, book an appointment with me. If you’ve been seriously injured, you deserve someone who is actually ready to fight for you — all the way to a jury if that’s what it takes.
Why It Matters
Your Choice Matters
Why You Should Get Ready
Insurance companies are not on your side. Too often their goal is to pay you as little as possible, as fast as possible and before you understand what your case is actually worth. They handle so many of these cases that they can test and perfect their approach to paying you less across millions of people who were injured before you were.
If your goal is to get your best outcome, you need a lawyer the insurance companies know will take your case to trial — and win.
I have tried cases in Colorado state courts and in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado. I have handled car accidents, truck accidents, premises liability, and federal civil rights cases. I take cases to trial when that’s what it takes to get my clients their best outcome. That is not something every personal injury attorney can say, and insurance companies know that. That’s not a threat and it is not based on hot air, bluster, or fist shaking because real-deal trial lawyers does not rely on or care about posturing. The facts speak for themselves on this issue, and my trial wins could speak for you too.
The Path That Got Me Here
I grew up in Georgia. Before law school, I spent time in Central America, then relocated to Colorado while serving in the U.S. Air Force. I was the first person in my family to go to college.
After my service, I worked as a contractor in the defense community. Then I left to attend law school — on a full scholarship — at the University of Colorado School of Law. By the time I started, I was married, owned a home, and had two kids.
My path wasn’t straight. It wasn’t easy. But I’d argue that’s a feature, not a bug. The people who come to me have usually been through something hard. They don’t need a lawyer who’s been insulated from difficulty. They need someone who understands what it means to have something real on the line.
You'll work with me - start to finish
At Ready Law, I personally handle each case from start to finish. That does not mean I work alone. It means your case is handled by me and you are supported by us.
A lot of law firms will sign your case, hand it to a case manager, and you won’t hear from your actual lawyer until it’s time to settle. You’ll wonder what’s happening. You’ll call and wait. You’ll get used to not knowing. That is not how Ready Law works.
When you choose to Get Ready, you get a top Colorado personal injury lawyer, that you chose, and you know who and what you are getting right from the start. I communicate with my clients every step of the way as their case progresses. When you first meet with me, we will sit down together (or by video chat or phone if you prefer) to go over the facts of your case, to discuss your options, and how the process of obtaining full compensation works, step by step.
Our clients get access to us through a free app that can be downloaded to their phone. The app provides case status with explanations of where what’s being done, with updates all throughout the case. The app also serves as a document portal, it’s a way to communicate with us directly by text and email, and it provides appointment reminders.
We’ve had clients tell us their former lawyer only spoke with them once or twice the whole time they were working together. At Ready Law, you chose your lawyer. You get your lawyer.
What You Can Expect
Honest assessments. From the first conversation, I’ll tell you what I think your case is worth, what the challenges are, and what the process looks like. No false promises.
Real communication. Most clients hear back from us within one business day, and all clients have access to an app that provides case status and other communications. You will not be left wondering what is going on with your case.
Trial-ready representation. Every case I take, I start working up for trial from the start. That shapes everything — how I investigate, how I negotiate, how I write a demand letter. If the insurance company won’t be fair, we go.
A lawyer who answers to you. Not to a board of partners. Not to a quota. I answer to my clients.
You Are Not A Number Here
You do not have to give up your personal dignity to pursue justice
You Are Not A Number Here
You can get justice without the jingle. You do not need to give up your personal dignity to pursue your best outcome. You do not have to work with someone who does not actually care about you. You can get full justice working with an attorney who is authentic, compassionate, and interested in learning about you and your injuries.
You may not want to sue. You probably wish you did not have to sue to get fair compensation. However, the medical bills are unavoidable, as is the suffering you experience every day. Sometimes we do not have to file a lawsuit to get you full and fair compensation.Preparing each case as if it is going to trial helps us get better outcomes and settle cases.
However, no amount of negotiating will be truly effective if the insurance company does not believe your case could go to trial. I am Ready and willing to take cases to trial when necessary, and I evaluate each case for likelihood of success at trial right from the start. Injury victims come to lawyers seeking justice, and sometimes justice has to come from a jury in a courtroom. Sometimes it comes because your lawyer is known for taking cases to trial. Don’t miss out on the benefits that come with choosing a trial-ready lawyer.
