Altman Legal Group is pleased to be able to offer its business clients innovative fee agreements as an alternative to billing on an hourly basis. The firm's ability to enter into different forms of contingent or fixed fee arrangements in a personal injury or business litigation setting is a result of the firm's confidence in its strategic judgments and its recognition that often such arrangements are the only way to make the civil justice system available to individuals and small businesses who otherwise could not afford to seek redress through the courts.

The attorneys at Altman Legal Group do everything we can to keep matters out of litigation. In personal injury matters we will present your case to insurance carriers before a lawsuit is filed and attempt to the best of our ability to assist our clients to settle without filing a lawsuit. Unfortunately, insurance companies have trained (and in many cases reward) their adjusters to deny, belittle and delay claims in order to allow the insurance companies to obtain and maintain huge CEO salaries and adjuster bonuses at the expense of those injured.  Thus many of our clients are left without a choice but to pursue their cases in the Courts.

Lawsuits are costly and time consuming to clients, courts, and people who serve on juries. At trial, in most cases, the jury is not told about the tactics of the insurance company. In fact, the insurance company cannot be introduced or even alluded to during the trial. They get to hide behind their insured (who had no say in whether or not to resolve the case fairly before being sued). Attorney fees and expenses cannot be awarded by a Court or jury and have to be paid out of the client’s recovery. Insurance companies have attorneys on retainers and can more easily afford the costs involved. Sometimes insurance companies take advantage of their financial strength and try to “starve” injured victims into submission. At Altman Legal Group we are dedicated to not letting that happen.

If a lawsuit is necessary we go all out to protect and preserve the rights of our clients. Our extensive litigation  experience allows us to aggressively deal with the insurance company attorneys.  Our trial skills allow us to present our clients case to the judge or jury in a way that allows them to understand what our clients have suffered from, thereby, allowing the judge or jury to render a judgment that compensates our clients for all their losses. In 99.9% of the cases, the insurance company is on the hook for the compensation to our clients.

Altman Legal Group has proudly received the Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics from the Better Business Bureau.
