Tom Vesper and friends join forces again to present “several distinct discussions and perspectives” in the ultimate program on successfully recovering reparations for various client injuries and wrongful deaths.
Motor Vehicle Crashes (MVC’s) (not to be confused with “accidents”) fall-downs and various traumatic events can result in small, inadequate jury verdicts, or “full and fair compensation” as the law requires. Victims depend on their lawyers for effective advocacy to recover money for both economic and “non-economic” damages.
Join these two trial lawyers and their expert panel of trial attorneys and judges with decades of experience and multi-millions of dollars in jury verdicts between them as they present this program on everything you need to know to efficiently, and successfully recover money damages in trial, mediation and arbitration.
