Has someone made an allegation against you or your business?
You are a business owner, property owner, or an individual, and you are being accused of negligently injuring someone. Whether the allegations are of the slip and fall type, are related to an animal bite, a car wreck, negligent security, or other negligence accusations, it is important to get competent legal defense early to preserve favorable evidence and to prevent an unscrupulous claimant from taking advantage of you.
What makes Scofield Legal unique to defend your personal injury lawsuit?
In addition to being an attorney, Jason Scofield is also a real estate investor and local construction business owner, which gives him a unique understanding of how a business can be negatively impacted by a personal injury or civil lawsuit.
Many personal injury attorneys have only ever represented plaintiffs (the injured party) and do not have the experience needed to defend the business or person named as the defendant. We have represented both Plaintiffs and Defendants in nearly every type of personal injury claim that exists. We have tried these cases to a verdict in jury trials, as well as tried them to a judgment in bench trials, so we know how to prepare the defense, and what the likely outcome of a trial will be.
Our approach to your defense
Our approach to defending you against personal injury allegations consists first of having a consultation, either in-person, via zoom, or over the phone. The consultation is private and protected by the attorney-client privilege even if you choose to hire a different attorney. We will discuss the allegations against you, review the available evidence, and provide you with a preliminary evaluation of what we think the likely outcome will be.
We will be upfront about our fees and retainer requirements If you choose to hire us, we will get to work immediately and begin a more in-depth analysis of the evidence the plaintiff allegedly has against you, and your defenses. We will investigate social media postings, obtain cell phone and email records where appropriate, delve into past claims and medical treatment of the plaintiff to look for pre-existing conditions, and attack the reasonableness of any medical charges and treatment if appropriate.
Unlike many personal injury firms, we are selective about the clients we take and the cases we sign on to. What this means for you is that the attorneys working your case will be familiar with your case and will be able to provide real-time updates. Additionally, your case will be fully worked up to get a dismissal, the best deal possible, or if need be, a trial.
Personal Injury Defense Attorney Fees
We offer an affordable, flat-fee structure to defend your personal injury case. Our attorneys will determine the cost necessary to defend your case after the initial consultation and provide you with the amount to retain our services. Payment plans may be negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
We accept most major payment methods including credit cards, cash, or check.
