Vetting service:
Insurance companies and Fortune 1000 companies that routinely have to hire outside counsel to handle their legal matters have been doing this sort of vetting of law firms for decades. They know that the right lawyer, on the right issues, in the right court, can affect the value of the case by far more than the cost of legal fees, despite the fact those fees are often quite substantial in themselves. But because they do it so routinely, the cost of the vetting is not an issue for them. Your legal matters are just as important, and now the cost of vetting need not be an obstacle for you, either. Depending upon how deep you want us to go, we can tell you about cases they’ve actually handled, the success rate, whether they’ve handled anything like your case before or not, their fees, their internal management and software systems in order to have the capacity to effectively handle your case, up to and including negotiating the retainer for you.
