Today we’re joined by Audra Dunlap, Pre-Litigation Managing Attorney at Speaks Law Firm, to get a closer look into the process our team works through before litigation. This is a crucial period following a catastrophic injury and this discussion will give you a better understanding of what goes into pre-litigation.

Join us to learn about the different stages, the factors that determine a case's value, and the timeline for resolving typical and catastrophic cases. Audra will explain the roles of economists and life care planners in assessing damages and how future medical expenses and lost wages are calculated.

Over the course of this multipart conversation, we will provide a comprehensive look into the legal processes that ensure clients receive the compensation they deserve.
