Settlement Strategy: How We Resolve Claims Without Courtroom Drama
When you are recovering from a serious injury, the last thing you have the energy for is a dramatic legal battle. Many people hesitate to call an attorney because they fear that hiring a lawyer guarantees a stressful courtroom experience. We are here to assure you that this is rarely the case.
At Freeman Childers, our approach is centered on efficiency and client well-being. While we are trial attorneys, we are also skilled negotiators. Our goal is to secure fair compensation for you while protecting your peace of mind.
Why do most cases settle out of court?
Certainty and Control:
Trials are unpredictable. Settlements allow both parties to agree on a definite outcome, giving you faster access to the funds you need for recovery.
Efficiency:
Court cases can drag on for months or years. Settlements can often be reached much faster, allowing you to close this chapter of your life and move forward.
Privacy:
Trials are matters of public record. Settlements allow for a higher degree of privacy regarding the details of your accident and recovery.
However, securing a fair settlement requires leverage. Insurance companies need to know that your legal team is not afraid of court. That is why we prepare every case meticulously. By demonstrating that we have the evidence and the legal arguments to win at trial, we often convince the opposing side to offer a fair settlement to avoid the courtroom altogether.
You do not have to choose between fighting for your rights and maintaining your peace. We handle the negotiations and the legal complexities so you can focus entirely on healing. If you have been injured, contact Freeman Childers to discuss your options.
