Being a true trial lawyer is not just
a legal strategy, it's a state of mind.
00:00:06.120 --> 00:00:11.255
We are a small personal injury firm that
really deals with some of the most
00:00:11.280 --> 00:00:13.935
catastrophic injuries that people have.
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:17.535
At Cochran Douglas,
we really do pride ourselves on vigorously
00:00:17.560 --> 00:00:21.680
advocating on behalf of our clients,
and making sure that each case is
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:26.415
specifically tailored and designed to
ensure that the client's goals
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:28.015
are the top priority throughout.
00:00:28.040 --> 00:00:33.375
Although we handle cases all over the
state, our primary focus are cases
00:00:33.400 --> 00:00:37.655
involving institutional sexual abuse and
personal injury cases such as motor
00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:41.775
vehicle accidents and premises liability
cases, as well as school
00:00:41.800 --> 00:00:44.640
district abuse and assault cases.
00:00:44.680 --> 00:00:49.080
We recognize that these are often the most
difficult times of their lives,
00:00:49.360 --> 00:00:53.160
but at the same time, we're ready to
take the case all the way through a jury.
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:55.600
We work on what's called
a contingency fee basis.
00:00:55.840 --> 00:00:59.280
This means that you do not pay any
retainer fee, you do not pay us upfront,
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:01.535
you do not pay us an hourly rate.
00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:05.000
The only way that we get
paid is if you get paid.
00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:09.975
We pride ourselves at Cochran Douglas on
keeping our clients exceptionally
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:14.600
well-informed from the first time that
they call into our office,
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:16.975
all the way through the discovery process.
00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:21.975
Through each and every part of litigation,
all the way up until resolution or trial,
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:25.095
if that be the way that someone
wants to take their case.
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:29.815
We're here to try and put you in a better
position to fight the individuals
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:31.760
who have put you in this position.
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:35.655
At the end of the day,
we're giving you personal service that
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:37.760
you're not going to get at
one of the larger firms.
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:43.735
If you're injured, and you are questioning
what to do next, if you don't know what
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:46.935
steps to take, if you don't know who to
call, I would highly suggest that you
00:01:46.960 --> 00:01:48.520
give us a call here at Cochran Douglas.
00:01:48.545 --> 00:01:51.895
We don't take everything,
but those that we do take,
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:54.600
we put 100% of our effort in it.
00:01:54.760 --> 00:02:00.455
That means our time and our money going
into that case because we're confident
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:02.520
that we're going to have
a recovery by the end.
