Trusted and Dependable Law Firm

One significant benefit of having a trusted and dependable law firm is the ability to maintain case consistency, even if a team member becomes ill or leaves the firm.

It makes many of us wonder, why do lawyers use legalese? I dug around to find out.  No fancy research was used here; just plain Google.com.  I found some interesting theories.  Some old terms have been battle tested in court...

Accident Report For My Injury Case in Mississippi?
