Settle Out Of The Court Room

In most personal injury case, your attorney is going to make an effort to try to settle or resolve your case with the other side, usually an insurance company, before filing a lawsuit and taking the case to court. That doesn’t always happen, and it doesn’t always succeed. If it does not succeed, your attorney then has to file a suit and put the case into litigation, then there are generally ongoing negotiations and opportunities along the way to try to settle the case before it gets to trial. Just one primary example is that every judge in the floor is going to order your case to mediation before trial, and that’s usually a more formal settlement conference providing the parties with an opportunity to try to settle your case before it actually gets to trial.
