I opened Strongpoint Law Firm, LLC, with a few core values in mind:
- All clients deserve great, zealous representation.
- All clients deserve open and frank communication about their case.
- All clients deserve an attorney who cares about them and their family.
That is what you get with me. You get an attorney who cares, who returns your phone calls, and who provides guidance, counsel, and forceful representation in the courtroom.
My clients also benefit from an insider’s knowledge of how the insurance industry works. For nearly a decade, I represented Longshore and Defense Base Act insurance companies. I understand the factors that insurance companies consider when evaluating their liability and valuing your claim.
I openly advocate maintaining a good, respectful working relationship with everyone involved in your case, from opposing counsel and insurance adjusters to your own doctors and experts. The end result of your litigation is to make sure that you recover all benefits to which you are entitled.
When you are injured, and when you need help, just remember that you aren’t hiring a law firm; instead, you are hiring a lawyer. So, give me a call at (985) 246-3194 or e-mail me at [email protected]. Also, feel free to fill out the contact form and I will call you. Let me give you the Defense Base Act, Longshore, and personal injury representation that you deserve.
