Many law firms have established and clear procedures for selection personnel and improving retention, but this is not always the case.  Lack of clarity or confusion over expectations can lay the foundation for a conflict between an individual and his or her firm.  Conflict can make it more difficult for individuals to work together and can even influence the overall productivity of the firm.  When such a dispute happens, it is critical to consider the benefits provided by an expert witness in the field.

Impairing an ongoing working relationship is not good for the attorney or for the firm.  This can also have a negative impact on firm clients if the attorney feels that a particular selection process was not handled fairly.  With years of experience working with and understanding retention and selection processes, we can provide clear insight into these procedures that helps to clear up existing misunderstandings while also paving the way for future improvements.  Ultimately, an expert witness offers a great deal in the resolution of these disputes that save time, money and the potential for conflict in the future.  Do not let a conflict generate animosity – involve an expert witness for quicker resolution.
