Frequently Asked Questions
How is your law firm different from other firms?
LibertyBell Law Group follows a somewhat different business model from the typical law firm. The mission of our firm is to consistently deliver the best possible case results for our clients. Focusing our business around this goal caused us to organize and conduct our business a bit differently from a traditional law firm.
Most law firms are local. On the surface, this makes sense. After all, most lawyers are licensed to practice law only in their home state, and most clients prefer a lawyer who lives in their town.
The problem with this model is that it limits law firms to a small pool of legal resources and talent in their home town. We have found that every client and case is different, and we often need to draw from talent, experience and strategies that simply are not available in a small local firm. Moreover, local law firms are subject to local politics. Defense attorneys may have personal and business relationships with other attorneys, prosecutors and judges. This can sometimes limit their aggressiveness in court, particularly in politically sensitive cases such as heinous crimes or sexual charges.
To ensure that our clients get the best possible defense regardless of the circumstances of their case, we use local attorneys who have detailed knowledge of your local court procedures. However, we back them with a vast team that lets us share resources and knowledge on a tremendous scale.
For example, if a particular defense strategy was useful in a case in Detroit, we can apply that knowledge to a similar case in Los Angeles. Similarly, if your case requires an attorney with specific skills not available in your community, we can fly in the top attorneys from anywhere in the country for your case.
The size of our firm allows us the luxury to focus exclusively on criminal defense. Our firm is staffed with specialists with tremendous experience in cases like yours and trial skills that have been honed over years of practice in this field. It also allows us to hire only the best attorneys in the country.
Perhaps the most important difference is teamwork. It is impossible for a single attorney to have all of the skills and time needed for every case. Attorneys are busy, and it takes a lot of work to get the results we deliver. Therefore, we always assemble a defense team for every client. The team includes a professional case manager, lead attorney, local counsel and support staff. This team approach allows us to be available to our clients 24 hours per day and respond instantly to the needs of any case.
