The firm’s approach
How Fusco Law handles a personal injury case, from the first conversation through investigation, negotiation and any necessary litigation.
From first conversation forward
The first conversation is about what happened, your injuries and the questions you need answered. Michael Fusco reviews the available information and explains what the firm needs to assess the matter. You do not need every record or a case-value estimate before reaching out.
Photographs, witness information and video can help explain an accident. Fusco Law identifies relevant records and considers preservation requests while evidence is still available. Tell us about incident reports, insurers and any businesses or people who may have information.
The firm investigates responsibility, insurance coverage and the effect of an injury on everyday life. Medical records, wage information and appropriate expert input help develop the evidence. The work is tailored to the facts; every matter does not require the same investigation.
Clients should understand the next step and the decisions that require their input. Michael Fusco explains developments, discusses questions and helps clients understand requests for records, testimony or other information. Tell the firm when treatment, work or contact information changes.
A settlement discussion should be grounded in evidence, available coverage and the risks of continuing the case. Fusco Law explains offers and the considerations behind its advice so the client can make an informed decision. No result can be promised.
Some claims resolve through negotiation; others require litigation and trial preparation. The firm develops the record with both possibilities in mind and discusses the work, uncertainty and decisions involved. Preparation supports a careful evaluation of settlement opportunities as well as contested proceedings.
