What does trial counsel do?

When we join established attorneys as trial counsel, we bring our renowned experience and skills to their client’s trial-bound cases. We provide comprehensive legal support both in the courtroom—presenting arguments and questioning witnesses—and throughout the process of preparing for trial. We’re focused on winning verdicts and judgments in court through our skilled trial preparations, impeccable presentations of legal arguments, and powerful courtroom presence. If needed, we can step in to take depositions or assist in the discovery process as well.

When do you need a trial lawyer?

If you’re like many attorneys, you may not spend a lot of your time in the courtroom, instead focusing on the critical tasks necessary for achieving successful outcomes out of court. This means that taking a case to trial may not be something you have a lot of high-level experience handling. Your client can benefit from you bringing on experienced trial lawyers to help you fight for them in court.

What should attorneys look for when hiring outside trial counsel?

When you’ve recognized that bringing on trial attorneys from outside your firm as lead counsel offers your clients their best chances in court, your next decision is who to choose for this critical role. At Anapol Weiss, leading attorneys like Walsh, Baldwin, Feden, and Coben have a proven record of success in the courtroom and a nationally recognized reputation for legal excellence. We’re experienced, accomplished, and ready to bring value to your client’s court case.

When to Hire Boutique Trial Counsel

Many legal matters never proceed to trial. Instead, they resolve out of court through settlement negotiations, mediation, arbitration, and other means. However, in order to settle a case for fair value, it is important that the discovery process is used to get you ready for trial. Every deposition has to be thorough, and no stone can go unturned in discovery. The best experts have to be obtained, and there can be no weak points in the expert reports.

In sum, you can’t leave anything to chance. Every strategy must be honed to precision. Every argument must be meticulously developed. Every aspect of the legal matter must be painstakingly analyzed.

When you have a complex case that you aren’t sure about, it’s crucial to bring in boutique trial counsel early on in the process. Boutique trial counsel can work with you to develop the best litigation strategy and ensure the discovery process yields the best results. And if you do end up going to trial, there is no learning curve on understanding the intricacies of the file.

However, there are cases where you’ve done a phenomenal job getting your client’s case ready, but recognize that trial is the only path forward to get fair compensation for your client. If you don’t have a strong history of courtroom wins, it is time to enlist the guidance of our seasoned trial lawyers to help you lead your client to victory. Together, we can ensure justice is served, wrongdoers are held accountable, and the client who trusted you with their case receives the results they deserve.
