How many cases does a personal injury lawyer handle at once?

The number of cases an attorney handles varies dramatically between firms. High-volume "settlement mills" may juggle hundreds of cases simultaneously, meaning each client gets minimal attention. At Kane Trial Law, we deliberately limit our caseload because we're not a volume-based firm. We focus on quality over quantity, which means attorney Michael Kane can dedicate the time and resources each case deserves. This is especially important for severe injury cases, which require significantly more attorney time than routine claims. Catastrophic injuries demand extensive investigation, coordination with medical experts and life care planners, complex damage calculations, and often aggressive litigation. These cases cannot be properly handled by attorneys managing hundreds of files. Seriously injured victims need an attorney who can focus on their specific situation, not one managing an assembly line of claims.
