Experience in Product Liability: Advocate’s lawyers and the lawyers in the Advocate Law Group Network have decades of demonstrated experience handling major cases involving harmful medicines – including class actions and mass tort product liability cases involving defective products, dangerous medicines, inadequate warnings and with the insurance companies that insured the drug manufacturers.

Proven Track Record of Success: We and our Network have a history of trying and winning cases as well as settling cases on extremely favorable terms, obtaining major recoveries for our clients.

Knowledge of the Law: We and the member firms in the Advocate Law Group Network are very familiar with all applicable state and federal laws, including consumer protection regulations and product safety standards. We bring in leading experts – including physicians, scientists and engineers -- to assure that we provide the courts with a full understanding of the scientific and technical aspects of the defects and dangers posed by the drugs, medical devices, toxic substances or other product dangers.

Communication: We take pride – and our clients can take confidence – from our clear and transparent communication about how the legal process works and the potential outcomes. Educating clients and keeping clients informed is second nature to us. We will review our case strategy as well as what’s happening with your case on a regular basis. We and the law firms in our network are highly responsive to questions and updates on case progress – and we never forget that it’s YOUR case – we are only lawyers who serve YOU, our client.

Experience in Negotiation and Litigation: Advocate’s lawyers have decades of experience with and an almost unmatched ability to negotiate settlements with opposing counsel, manufacturers and their insurance companies. (That one of our senior partners formerly was CEO of a unit of the nation’s largest insurance company makes it so much easier.) The Advocate Law Group Network has the resources and is prepared to take cases to trial if a highly favorable settlement cannot be reached. Our adversaries know they can’t bluff or push us around.

Our Resources: We have access to the leading expert witnesses (e.g., engineers, medical professionals) to help strengthen our cases – including a senior partner who created the first online expert witness website. The Advocate Law Group Network is not just a single lawyer or law firm but a highly capable and financially strong team that is extremely experienced in handling the complexities of discovery, research, and litigation.

Transparency: We will provide a clear explanation of our fee structure and work purely on a contingency basis, so our we are paid only when we obtain a win or settlement, and you will not have any liability for costs.

Local Knowledge: It always helps a legal case if the lawyers know and are respected by the local judges and court clerks and the lawyers on the other side. It speeds things up and prevents misunderstandings. That’s why Advocate Law Group has created the Advocate Law Group Network with other top-rated law firms representing claimants and plaintiffs nationwide – so their familiarity with local courts, judges, and opposing counsel, combined with our expertise and resources – makes an incredibly advantageous combination in building and presenting as strong a case for you as possible.

Availability: We are and will be readily accessible for meetings, updates, and answering client concerns.
