NO. 03 — Practice
A selective docket.
We take fewer cases so each one gets trial-grade preparation. Accepting your matter means we have already judged it worth a courtroom.
- 01Catastrophic injuryBrain, spinal cord, amputation. Numbers that have to last a lifetime.
- 02Trucking & commercial vehiclesFleet and heavy-vehicle collisions. We preserve the data before it disappears.
- 03Workplace & constructionSite injuries beyond the standard claim: third-party liability, equipment, scaffolding.
- 04Medical negligenceMissed diagnoses, surgical error. Reviewed by practicing specialists before we file.
- 05Defective productsDesign and manufacturing failures. Engineering analysis, not conjecture.
- 06Wrongful deathFor families. Handled with the gravity it demands, at the pace grief allows.
NO. 04 — The docket
Five stations. You always know which one you’re at.
Each case moves through the same docket, and you can see which station yours is at.
STATION I · DAY 1
Intake
Free review. We answer within one business day and tell you plainly whether you have a case.
STATION II · WEEKS 1–8
Investigation
Scene work, records, experts. Evidence preserved before it disappears.
STATION III · MONTH 3
Demand
The demand is one number, and the insurer sees the trial file behind it.
STATION IV · MONTH 4+
Litigation
Filed and trial-set. Depositions, motions, exhibits pile up. The pressure builds.
STATION V · CLOSE
Resolution
Verdict or settlement. The decision to accept is always yours.
NO. 05 — The fee
If we don’t recover, you owe us nothing.
An agreed percentage, in writing, before we start. A recovery of zero means a fee of zero. The fee and the costs are two different things, and who pays what is written out in plain language before we start.
One page, and the whole deal is on it.
NO. 06 — The bench
Four lawyers, and each case gets its own first chair.
The lawyer who signs your retainer tries your case, and handles it in between. We don’t pass files down to junior associates.
NO. 07 — Client words
Client words.
“They gave me a number on day one and told me it might change. It did, it went up. When I called, I heard back the same day.”
“The insurer’s first offer was ninety thousand. Calder Finch tried the case. The verdict was $2.3 million.”
“I never felt like a file. I had the lead lawyer’s direct line, and she picked up.”
Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
NO. 08 — Case review

Free and confidential. A trial lawyer reads what you send, and we reply within one business day.
