As litigation is foundational to the practice of law, the litigation section is a cornerstone of the firm of Decker, Jones, McMackin, McClane, Hall & Bates. The litigation group offers a full complement of business tort related litigation services backed by an experienced staff of trial attorneys. The firm's case load provides exceptional opportunities for its attorneys to participate in both bench and jury trials. Closely supervised associates are given significant responsibility for client matters early in their careers.
The firm utilizes the latest in technology and technique in preparing and trying lawsuits. The firm's litigators understand the value of accident reconstruction and the use of economic and other experts, as well as the importance of video and computer simulation in properly preparing and presenting a case. The firm's support of innovation is sustained by a shared commitment to increase efficiency in dispute resolution. The section maintains constant access to video and computer simulation studios to help service its need for demonstrative aids.
Productivity of attorneys and support staff is enhanced by the firm's team approach to litigation. Before work is begun on a new matter, it is evaluated by a supervising attorney. Where practical or necessary, issues requiring expertise in a particular area of the law are assigned to attorneys in the appropriate section. A team is then created, headed by the supervising attorney, which permits the timely and efficient prosecution of the case. This method promises the utilization of the firm's broad base of expertise and support services, reducing costs to the client.
The team approach permits exposure to a wide range of experience. Nearly all the attorneys in the firm have some contact with matters in litigation, either as part of a trial team or in providing advice and counsel, as well as other support services. The team approach to problem solving, combined with the professional yet informal atmosphere of the firm, creates an environment which encourages innovation in strategy and technique while keeping in view the practical objectives of the client. The firm's staff of experienced trial attorneys, led by board certified civil trial specialists, provides the strong support businesses and professionals need in trying times.
The defense of liability claims against insurance companies and their insureds is a keystone of the firm's litigation practice. The firm represents the interests of drivers, homeowners, physicians and other professionals, manufacturers and employers. The section also emphasizes business and commercial litigation. Trial attorneys for the firm represent clients in commercial disputes, construction disputes, breach of contract actions and a broad spectrum of business related litigation, including suits based on corporate, securities, tax, employment, real estate and intellectual property issues.
Decker Jones has represented physicians, nurses, hospitals and other health care providers for over 10 years and long since a leader in the defense of health care liability lawsuits.
