But it is only easy to be cynical until the day
you or someone close to you has a bad accident and needs a good attorney
to get adequate compensation for medical expenses, lost income and pain
and suffering. If you have a serious injury it only makes sense to hire a serious attorney. You will not find Stephen Merrill riding spaceships in a television studio or shouting CASH, CASH, CASH through the television set. You will find him trying cases in court making the insurance companies pay by showing a jury why his client deserves a verdict.
If you believe there may be another personal
injury attorney in Alaska who could get better results for you,
ask them a simple question. Can you match this list of jury
verdicts in the courts? |
