5 Benefits of Working with ASFS

Three and a half decades of service have given us a tremendous amount of experience, perspective, and know-how. The last thing you need when dealing with a serious personal injury is a legal team that is inexperienced. The stakes are too high. We give you the peace of mind that comes from knowing you’re dealing with professionals who have proven their abilities time and time again.

When dealing with a personal injury, you need more than just legal support. You need access to medical and engineering professionals. Sometimes, the insurance company will be happy to provide you with a medical professional, but we see that as a conflict of interest. That’s why we provide our clients with access to unbiased medical professionals that can objectively assess your injury. If you don’t have the financial means to pay for medical and para-medical services, we are able to step in and assist until your case settles.

We aren’t a firm that tries to do it all. We understand that each area of the law is unique and nuanced, and those in need of legal help don’t want to work with a jack of all trades. You want to work with a firm that knows the ins and outs of the area of law your case deals with, ensuring that you receive the best representation possible.

We make it easy for you to get in touch with us and receive a case evaluation. Our goal is to help you understand the reality of your situation, what issues are at play, and the likelihood of a successful lawsuit. You also get a glimpse at what working with us would be like, and we take the extra effort to make sure you’re comfortable and in agreement with all of our actions and decisions.

The prospect of hiring legal help for a personal injury case is frightening to many people who ask themselves: What if I don’t win? What if I still have to pay for my legal help without the money from a successful case? The good news is when you work with us, you don’t. You only pay us for our work if we win your case through a settlement or trial.
