Why Choose Sick Legal

Sometimes less is more.

 

With thousands of law firms to choose from in the tri-state area, what criteria do you use to decide who should represent you? 

At Sick Legal, we’ve found that three primary characteristics help law firms deliver the best outcomes for their clients: 

  1. Relationship
    The best attorneys are those who take the time to know their clients as people first and clients second. A deep understanding of the client’s changing life situation — their greatest hopes, their past experiences and the concerns that keep them up at night — enables the attorney to perform their best for the client. People have wildly varying priorities, risk tolerance and temperaments and, as such, benefit from customized legal services that address each of these. One-on-one consulting and in-depth personal relationships allow Sick Legal to offer precisely the support and perspective that each client requires to feel secure, to plan ahead and to best respond to situations as they arise.

  2. Experience and Curiosity

    There is indeed no substitute for experience, and our rich understanding of the law has deepened progressively over the course of nearly 15 years in the business. But we believe an almost equally important attribute is curiosity — about ourselves, about the world, about our client. Such natural curiosity is the “secret sauce” that enables Sick Legal to find inventive, creative and often unorthodox solutions that match the needs of every individual client and legal issue we encounter. 

  3. Small Size
    In our more-is-better culture, it can seem counter-intuitive that a smaller firm provides better service than a large one. But in reality, smaller firms are the right choice for most clients for the following reasons: 

  • Small firms save you money. Bigger firms have more lawyers, bigger offices, higher overhead and as such, higher hourly rates and retainers than smaller firms. You can pay for those fancy offices, slick marketing and web design teams — or you can save money and pay only for excellent legal service. 

  • Small firms resolve issues more efficiently. Big firms tout themselves as better able to manage your case with a cadre of 30 lawyers on deck. But in reality, there is rarely a legal issue that requires a team of 30 or 15 or even five lawyers to solve. The individualized attention from Sick Legal offers the most efficient and relevant assistance for 99% of legal problems. 

  • Small firms offer more personalized and proactive attention. Attorneys at small firms are more accessible and responsive than those at large firms, allowing more immediate assistance with urgent issues. Sick Legal’s attorneys respond within 24 hours to help you manage anything that arises.
