Defendant
A defendant is someone accused of violating the law. The defendant in a civil suit is accused of being liable by the person who’s rights have been violated and/or who has been harmed, the plaintiff. The defendant is usually represented by an attorney, called a defense lawyer. Most of the time, this lawyer is provided by the defendant’s insurance company who, as a part of the insurance that the defendant bought, has a duty to defend them against any legal action. Insurance companies have endless funds to spend on lawyers and experts to deny you your lawful right to recovery. That’s why you need the aggressive, competent, skilled legal representation that The Dolan Law Firm can provide. If a defendant does not have insurance coverage for a claim they have to pay their lawyers by the hour. Insurance does not pay for the plaintiff’s attorney’s fees. That is why skilled plaintiff’s attorneys, like The Dolan Law Firm work on a contingent basis. We only get paid when we win. And we win.
