WHEN CLIENTS WORK WITH ME THEY SEE:
?Early case assessments, within 60 days, so that they can see the strengths and weaknesses of their case EARLY!
?Vetted exit strategies within 60 days, that allow them to decide EARLY what the best course of action is for their particular case!
?A deliberate approach to what we spend in litigation because we don’t do everything; we do what generates the most ROI for that particular exit strategy. (Ex. If you want an early mediation, we may not even need to take Plaintiff’s deposition).
?If desired, a legal budget (a real one) within 30 days so that you can see what you are about to spend.
?Internal M&A SOPs that mirror our litigation philosophy, i.e. automated 30 and 60 day reminders upon file opening, weekly reports on reporting deadlines, daily and weekly diary reminders on reporting, exit strategies and discovery deadlines.
ABOUT ME
My name is Patricia Baxter. I am a managing partner helping companies keep their litigation costs under control & close files! I collaborate with insurance companies and self-insured businesses to reach their goals. In addition to my role as an active trial attorney, I also specialize in early and efficient dispute resolution.
My practice is concentrated in 3 main areas: products liability, aviation, and premises liability. With products liability I represent manufacturers and distributors of various powered industrial machinery/equipment; industrial/commercial equipment; medical devices; construction equipment; food service products; cosmetic products; aviation component parts; automotive OEM and aftermarket component parts; elevators; plumbing, electrical and lighting fixtures; and recreational equipment and related component parts. With aviation I represent airlines and aviation vendors, including skycaps, wheelchair handlers, plane cleaners, baggage handlers, Jetway operators, tarmac mechanics and more. With premises liability I represent large commercial landowners and facility management companies with high self-insured retentions.
Thanks for watching!
