Informative

Clients rarely feel the need to ask about the status of their case because this firm keeps them up to date. Still, you're encouraged to call whenever you feel the need. How many auto accident lawyers do you believe respond to texts and calls after hours and on the weekends and give you their personal cell phone number? Very few, but that is what you will experience at Troutman Law Office.

Responsive

Matt Troutman always has his phone handy, so when you call, text, or email, you will almost always get an immediate answer unless he's engaged in something that cannot be interrupted. If he's in a deposition, mediation, or meeting with a client, he will get back to you as soon as possible. No leaving messages with a paralegal or secretary. Just direct communication with the attorney who is in charge of your claim.

Personable

If you’re a client of this law firm, Matt is here for you — plain and simple. His concern is your health and well-being, so don’t ever hesitate to say what’s on your mind. His role is as an advisor. He knows that this is your case and he will advise you what he thinks is the best decision regarding a matter. However, it's your decision.


Many attorneys, including the heavy advertisers, will send a demand letter to the insurance company without ever discussing with you the amount they are demanding for settlement, and some will settle the case without even asking for your approval. Those attorneys think the case belongs to them, but they are wrong.


You and Matt will agree on the amount to demand from the insurance company and negotiate the claim together.

A Small Firm with a Strong Philosophy

When Troutman Law Office was established in 1986, Attorney Matt Troutman knew exactly what kind of law office he wanted it to be. He wanted to be personal, aggressive, and to act with integrity. Matt had worked on the other side of personal injury lawsuits — the side that defends the insurance companies — and that experience taught him a great deal. Not only did it show how much he could do for those who had been injured in accidents, but it also helped him gain invaluable trial experience and insight into how the other side operates.


When Matt works with you, he fights to pursue the maximum compensation your case can receive. This means he's prepared to file lawsuits, to litigate, and to present the most convincing argument possible to a jury, should your case reach that point. In other words, he won’t rush to settle for a mediocre payout, nor will he take your case up to the point of trial and then pass it off to someone else.


Rather, he will see your case through to the end and fight tooth and nail to get the compensation you need to cover your injury-related expenses. Many of the large, heavy-advertising law firms do not litigate any of their own cases, which means they are not really willing to fight for you unless it is an easy settlement.


If the insurance company fails to offer a reasonable settlement offer, they refer you to another law firm and normally the attorney fees will increase if litigation is required. This type of practice is not best for the client, because you will pay a higher fee to litigate your case and the heavy-advertising firm is motivated to settle your case cheaply because they do not want to split their fee with another law firm.


Troutman Law Office will handle your personal injury claim from beginning to end. Although our firm isn't afraid to get aggressive in negotiations, we're also very committed to integrity. We won't lie, cheat, or steal to advance your case. Instead, the truth will be presented in a persuasive manner.


If you want to fool an insurance company or obtain a recovery for an injury that is not related to your accident or that is contrived, Troutman Law Office is not the injury law firm for you. The truth is important, and unveiling the truth will always remain at the core of this firm's philosophy.


Attorney Matt Troutman will always tell you the truth about your claim. It is important that clients be told the truth about the value of their claim. Sometimes, clients have an inflated view about the value of their claim. You may depend on us to tell you the truth about the probable value of your claim based on decades of resolving cases with insurance companies and presenting cases to juries.


If someone is trying to sell their house and they have it valued too high, it is likely that the house will just sit on the market until the price is reduced enough to reflect its true market value. The same is true with an injury claim from an accident. This firm will always tell you what experience tells us about the value of your claim while at the same time demanding maximum value from the insurance company.


Together, we will obtain the best result possible. Call the office today to discuss your case.
