Testifying in Court
One question that is always asked of me as a Buffalo Personal Injury Attorney is, “Will I have to testify?”
- Often, negotiated settlements with insurance companies obviate the need to go to trial; however, it is very important that insurance companies know your attorney is willing to take your case to trial.
- Insurance companies know which attorneys will try to persuade clients to settle their cases to avoid proceeding to the level of a trial, but we try a high percentage of our cases unless we are confident of securing a reasonable dollar figure under our client’s specific circumstances.
- Ultimately, the client decides whether we go to trial – making their testimony required – because the attorney is the employee and the client is the employer.
