- Certified trial attorneysLawyers the New Jersey Supreme Court has certified in civil trial lawNone confirmed by the Board's published lists0 / 20
Why it matters
Most cases settle, but a case that doesn't is decided at trial. A certified trial lawyer is the clearest public sign a firm can try one. It doesn't tell you who would handle your case, so ask.
- Lawyers doing injury workHow much of the firm handles injury cases100% of the lawyers it lists · source20 / 20
Why it matters
A firm whose lawyers mostly handle injury cases does this work every day. A firm with many lawyers in other fields can still have a strong injury team, so ask who would handle yours.
- Results it postsSettlements and verdicts the firm chose to post2 on its site, largest $2,100,000 (firm-reported) · see them10.8 / 15
Why it matters
It shows the firm takes injury cases to a finish and says so in public. The firm picks which ones to post, so it shows what it has won, not how often it wins.
- Contact optionsWays to reach the firm that its website listsNone of the ones we score · source0 / 10
Why it matters
It shows the ways the firm says you can reach it when a question comes up. It doesn't tell you how fast anyone answers, so ask who you'd talk to.
- Says who pays case costsWhether its website explains who pays case costsToo few firms in this county say it to tell them apart, so it counts for none of them herenot in yet
Why it matters
Case costs, like filing and expert fees, are separate from the fee. A firm that explains who pays them, including when a case is lost, lets you compare before you sign.
- Essex County court activityInjury lawsuits it has filed and resolved in the countyNot in for any firm yetnot in yet
Why it matters
It would show how often a firm's injury cases reach the county court, from the court's own records rather than the firm's ads.
- Years licensed, lead lawyersHow long its lead lawyers have practicedIts bios don't state a New Jersey admission year. It counts once we have it for every firmnot in yet
Why it matters
It tells you whether senior or newer lawyers lead the firm's injury work. It tells you how long they have practiced, not how well.
