“I had the pleasure of working with Sean Alto to resolve a personal injury I sustained that left me permanently disabled. Sean not only fought to get me the compensation I needed to help provide for my family, but continued to follow up with me long after my case has settled to check on me and my family. Sean and everyone at Cooper Elliott truly care about the wellbeing of their clients.”

Our Process
How We Work to Resolve Your Case
We keep you informed throughout the process. From our initial conversation through the conclusion of your matter, we are here when you need us.
1. Initial conversation
We discuss your goals and our process, and gather important information.
2. Evaluation
As we collect information, including records and witness statements, we assess the strengths and weaknesses of all possible claims and defenses and whether pre-suit settlement is feasible.
3. Filing the lawsuit
This starts the formal litigation process. Prior to filing we strategize as a team and collaborate with you to determine a path that we believe will best accomplish your goals.
4. Exchange of information
This is called the discovery phase and includes exchanging documents and obtaining testimony under oath from witnesses and experts.
5. Mediation
After sufficient information has been obtained, many times the parties will attempt to resolve the case by using a neutral person to help bring the sides together.
6. Trial
If mediation or negotiations are unsuccessful, the next stop is the courthouse.
