Brian Hargrove | August 15, 2024 | Personal Injury Brian Hargrove Law is committed to achieving Full Justice for our clients. We utilize every available tool and resource. Among these tools, one of the most crucial, if not the most, is the strategic use of "Focus Groups." Brian learned the art of focus groups from one of the nations’ top trial lawyers, Don Keenan from Atlanta, Georgia. WHAT IS A FOCUS GROUP? To put it simply: a Focus Group is a diverse group of 8-12 folks from the community. These folks represent potential jurors that may show up for jury duty. They do not have any legal experience. WHY USE FOCUS GROUPS? Focus groups provide us potential jurors’ thoughts, opinions, and attitudes. There are numerous reasons and types of focus groups. Before going to trial, we must know the weaknesses in our case. Mr. Keenan once said: “People always want to tell you why your case stinks.” Here are a few reasons we use focus groups: Case Evaluation Jury Selection Trial Strategy Witness Preparation Settlement Negotiations Identify themes and arguments. Test defense theories BOTTOM LINE: The reason we run focus groups is simple: We want to get our clients FULL JUSTICE.

BRIAN HARGROVE| AUG 5, 2024| PERSONAL INJURY When you've been injured due to someone else's negligence, choosing the right personal injury lawyer can make a significant difference in the outcome of your case. Selecting a personal injury attorney who is not only competent but also well-suited to your specific situation is crucial. In this article, we'll walk you through the key factors to consider when choosing a personal injury lawyer. Whether you're dealing with a car accident, burn injuries, wrongful death or any other type of personal injury case, this information will help you make an informed decision. CHOOSING AN EXPERIENCED PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER IS CRUCIAL TO THE OUTCOME OF YOUR CASE In-depth knowledge of personal injury law is a complex and nuanced field. You need an experienced personal injury lawyer who has handled cases like yours before. Additionally, you want an experienced personal injury trial lawyer with courtroom experience specific to your personal injury case. Many of the larger heavily advertised law firms settle cases for far less than full value to avoid the courtroom. When you hire an experienced personal injury lawyer, you're not just hiring legal representation – you're engaging a lawyer who has dedicated their career to mastering the intricacies of this specific area of law. This experience can be the difference between a quick settlement for less than full value or an exceptional one for the FULL VALUE of your case. ASK FAMILY OR FRIENDS FOR REFERRALS You may have family, friends, or coworkers who may have hired a personal injury lawyer to handle their case. REVIEW PERSONAL INJURY LAWYERS WEBSITES A personal injury lawyers’ website can convey a lot of information about them and their practice. The website should reflect the number of years of experience in personal injury law. Also, you will want to read the reviews. Many law firms have “fake reviews” generated by bots. Make sure the reviews verifiable. Professional organizations and membership are another valuable tool to selecting the right personal injury lawyer for your case. What organizations and trial groups does the lawyer belong to? Many lawyers want a good settlement offer without getting the proper education or trial preparation needed. You want a lawyer that is active in trial lawyers’ associations and maintains high levels of continuing education. QUESTIONS TO ASK A PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER You should NEVER hire a lawyer or law firm without talking directly with the lawyer. The larger heavily advertised law firms will send out an “investigator” to complete the paperwork to get you under contract as soon as possible. Do NOT fall for this. I cannot begin to tell the number stories I’ve head over the past 24 years by someone calling my office complaining that they hired a law firm before they “ever even spoke with a lawyer before signing the contract.” Begin by asking any potential lawyer how many years they have been in practice. Next, ask the lawyer if their practice is dedicated to personal injury. Also, find out how many cases they accept in any given month. Finally, find out if they take cases to trial. WHEN YOU’VE BEEN INJURED IN AN ACCIDENT, YOU NEED CUSTOM REPRESENTATION WITH BIG RESULTS, NOT A “BIG LAW FIRM”. CONTACT OUR FORT WORTH PERSONAL INJURY LAW FIRM If you’ve been seriously injured call today and speak directly with Fort Worth Injury Lawyer Brian Hargrove for Your Free Consultation.
