If your attorney can't tell you exactly how many cases she has at any given moment, the answer is "too many. A high volume of cases inevitably increases the risk of errors. We also believe in client-centered litigation. Client-centered litigation means that you know what your attorneys are doing on your behalf and that your ideas, thoughts, and concerns are heard and addressed by your lawyers.
