Litigation involves far more than filing an initial complaint or an answer to a lawsuit filed against you, it requires complex analysis of the facts and the law applicable to each specific case.  Litigation is time-consuming, expensive, and full of uncertainty; thus, you should have the guidance of experienced litigation attorneys.  We will analyze your case, evaluate the prospects for an effective defense or successful recovery, plan for risk management, and provide a pragmatic evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of your case.  You may then make a fully informed decision about whether or not you want to proceed and how you want to approach the case.

​

 Once the decision is made to pursue or defend litigation, our trial philosophy is centered on a cost-effective, goal-oriented strategy to achieve realistic results.  We seek to maximize value for our clients by combining a realistic evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the case with an unrelenting pursuit of all available avenues for the successful resolution of your matter.   Wherever possible we will seek to expedite the resolution of your case through settlement or alternative dispute resolution such as mediation.  If such intermediate approaches are unsuccessful, we will present your case in the best light possible given the facts of your particular circumstances.

​

While litigation is not always the best solution, sometimes it is the only option, and our clients appreciate the experience, insight, dedication, and professionalism that Weaver & Fitzpatrick, P.A. can provide in litigating their cases.
