Will my case go to court?

Most lawyers settle cases; they don’t try them. You want a lawyer prepared to try your case, even though most cases don't get to trial because the cases prepared and the lawyers that are ready to go to trial get better results than the ones who just settle them.

At the O'Brien & Zehnder Law Firm, we are able to settle many of the Elk Grove and Sacramento County cases we accept out of court. We are aggressive in protecting our clients' rights, highlighting the uniqueness of each claim, and insisting the insurance company views you as a person, not just a claim number or statistic.

We have a reputation for tough and aggressive advocacy in the courtroom, and insurance companies know that we will take your case to trial if that's what is required to achieve a fair resolution.

Having such a solid reputation influences how the insurance companies approach us; they know that trials are both expensive and unpredictable, and they usually prefer to avoid that expense and uncertainty, which allows us to negotiate a fair out-of-court settlement, generally.

For more information or to make an appointment, please contact our personal injury attorneys at the Elk Grove-based O'Brien & Zehnder Law Firm by phone or send us an email and someone from our office will be in touch with you shortly.
