Our skilled and experienced Case Investigation and Assessment team will evaluate the merits of a legal dispute before filing a lawsuit—or deciding how to defend one.
Leaders for case investigation and assessment matters
Litigation attorneys often conduct an initial case investigation to determine, in the plaintiff’s case, if enough evidence exists to file a lawsuit or, in the defendant’s case, what evidence exists to defend a potential suit.
The investigation process may include locating witnesses, taking witness statements, gathering documents, interviewing the client and investigating the facts leading to the dispute.
Litigation attorneys often engage in pre-litigation settlement discussions to resolve the matter before a lawsuit is filed.
