An Unrivaled Duo

A jury trial for a catastrophic injury case is a massive endeavor. If tried the right way, it cannot be done alone. It is for that reason, James and Brett Slavicek try cases together, and do so with precision and perfection.

Prior to joining The Slavicek Law Firm, James always tried cases by himself, unless absolutely necessary to have co-counsel. Selfishly, James never wanted to share responsibility or forego conducting every aspect of trial. In the rare instances he would have co-counsel, James found himself frustrated by his counterpart’s lack of robust strategy or execution. But that changed when James met Brett.

James and Brett try cases as an unrivaled duo. Any suggestion to the contrary is in defiance of their legendary record of achieving great verdicts together. There is simply not a better trial team in Arizona. Indeed, James and Brett always win at trial, always obtaining verdicts for amounts greater than both Defendant’s and Plaintiff’s pre-trial settlement offer.

Every minute of every trial is conducted by James and Brett in a strategic, thoughtful manner. If James is the “bad cop” who vigorously cross-examines Defendant’s expert, Brett is the “good cop” who presents a passionate and compelling closing argument. It is yin and yang at its best.

Selfishly, James and Brett grow frustrated they don’t try cases together more frequently. Indeed, their reputation has resulted in the great majority of their cases settling for the amount they demand. However, in the rare instance a Defendant does not pay their settlement demand, James and Brett make them regret that decision once the jury’s verdict is read.
