The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. A description or indication of limitation of practice does not mean that any agency or board has certified such lawyer as a specialist or expert in an indicated field of law practice, nor does it mean that such lawyer is necessarily any more expert or competent than any other lawyer. All potential clients are urged to make their own independent investigations and evaluation of any lawyer being considered.

Very few lawyers devote their practice to one thing only. I think that is a mistake. I believe that the very best work comes from dedication to one thing. We don't try to juggle car accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, criminal defense, or any other area of the law. We don't think that's best for the people that we need to work for. That's why Oval Car Accident Law only helps people who were hurt in car accidents.
