Our success in jury trials is public record, and we believe it is unmatched in the Southern United States. The reputation we have earned for successfully trying cases often facilitates cost-effective settlements in the early stages of litigation.

ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL

Ours is not a "cookie cutter" approach to case development. We recognize that each case is unique and of overriding importance to our clients, therefore we focus on your individual needs by:

At Schell Cooley LLP, we believe in doing what we do best ... defending our clients. We know what it takes to try a case successfully because that is our specialty. The majority of our partners are board certified, and all have significant trial experience. In addition to our vast trial experience, each case is supervised by a partner who has specific insight into your industry. When it is time to go to trial, you will have a proven team on your side. We believe that our unconventional approach to each case is one of the major keys to our high success rate.

DISTINCTIVE APPROACHES ~ OPTIMUM RESULTS

As civil trial specialists, we understand that optimum resolution is not always achieved in the courtroom. Trial is not always the answer and other options may be more effective. Our lawyers are keenly aware of precedent-setting cases and changing legislation that continually impact the legal system. Our experience and expertise help us determine what avenues should be exhausted before courthouse resolution. We work arduously to make alternative dispute resolution solutions successful when appropriate. With years of experience in our specific fields, we are able to develop innovative yet practical solutions that firms with a broader focus may overlook.

Cost-effective representation demands early identification of issues that should not be litigated.

Lawyers who frequently try cases to verdict are able to more effectively differentiate between cases that demand courtroom resolution and those in which other approaches are more appropriate.
