Re: personal injury

The court in this case will rule on the appropriate attorney for your daughter in the personal injury matter. The court may take a dim view of an attorney "racing to the courthouse" to file a case when the attorney knows that the daughter is already represented.

I hope that I have helped, answered all of your questions, and that I have provided you with useful information. Please contact me if I have not answered all of your questions.

Please be aware that my answer is not legal advice, it is merely information. You and I have not entered into an attorney/client relationship. The only way that I am legally responsible for your legal rights is if you have signed a written retainer agreement with my law firm.
