At Commander + Pound, we are careful in choosing which cases we accept and we only take the cases we will prosecute ourselves. The lawyer you hire at Commander + Pound will be with you throughout your case, including settlement negotiations and, if necessary, your trial.

At Commander + Pound, we will tell you right up front if we feel we are not best suited to represent you and your particular case. We do not refer our cases to other lawyers or law firms but are frequently the firm to whom other lawyers refer such cases.

Our founding partners have over 40 years of trial experience between them, including more than 60 jury verdicts, dozens of mediations and hundreds of settlements.

They have recovered in excess of $30 million for clients.

Before choosing a lawyer for a serious personal injury or wrongful death case, ask them specifically, how many jury trials they have handled. It is not unusual for an attorney to handle less than a dozen trials throughout an entire career.
