We Exclusively Handle Personal Injury Cases

When you are looking for Vancouver personal injury lawyers one of the first things you should do is focus on lawyers who focus only on personal injury cases. Your case is too important to have it handled by a lawyer who does a bit of everything.  

Chad Stavley focuses his law firm completely on personal injury cases.  We don't take other types of cases because they would distract our attention from the accident victims we are dedicated to helping.

The Winning Experience You Need + The Personal Attention You Want

After a serious injury incident, you need to get a Vancouver personal injury lawyer who can help you and your family through a terrible situation. You or your loved one might be facing large medical bills, wage losses, and other expenses.  You may have suffered catastrophic injuries that will be life-changing.  Under these circumstances, you need to get a good Vancouver personal injury lawyer to protect your legal rights.

Five Star Reviews

When you have been involved in a serious accident and are forced into a system that is not familiar to you, you want to have a lawyer who will give you all the personal attention you need.  You want to know that your personal injury case is being handled by a professional attorney who is willing to meet with you personally when you have questions or concerns.  

Many personal injury lawyers have a reputation for taking on as many cases as possible and pushing their clients off onto associates and legal assistants.  The only time you ever speak to these attorneys might be when hiring them.  

We intentionally limit the number of cases we accept so that Chad can give personal attention to each client. When clients have questions and want to talk to Chad, all they have to do is call the office.  We invite you to read our online reviews where clients and potential clients have commented on the caring, professional way they were treated during a terrible time in their lives.  

Trial Experience When Negotiations Fail

Not every case can be settled.  That is why we have a civil justice system in the first place.  If a lawyer has never tried any of their cases, it does not mean they are a good negotiator.  It means that they are not willing to take any risks in cases involving disputed fault or where there are issues about the proper value of the case.

You need a lawyer who will negotiate hard, but also has proven the ability to go get a verdict in court if negotiations fail.  The insurance company knows who they are negotiating with.  If the lawyer has never received a verdict at trial, the insurance company does not consider them a financial risk to the company.

We Only Get Paid If We Win

Like most Vancouver personal injury lawyers, we take cases on a contingency fee basis.  That means we only get paid if we win and our fee is a percentage of the amount we win.  However, our fee agreement is a bit different in that we base our percentage on the amount recovered after all medical liens and outstanding medical expenses are paid.  In a case with high medical bills, that can make a huge difference.  

Also, we advance all the costs required to prove your case including expert fees, court filing fees, and deposition fees. Some Vancouver attorneys will expect you to advance those costs which can sometimes be many thousands of dollars.  Ask any attorney you consult about who advances costs when you have an initial consultation.
