"The state of Missouri keeps track of the top 20 verdicts and settlements obtained every year. If you look back at these lists, you will see the name Zevan & Davidson repeated frequently. This is no surprise, considering our commitment to getting positive results for people like you In the end, our goal is to help people like you get results that meet their needs. As long as we consistently achieve this goal, no other accolades matter. We take the most pride in the fact that we help people move forward after a serious personal injury or the loss of a loved one. Still, we are happy that we have been recognized for our success in the following ways: - We are AV®-rated* under Martindale-Hubbell’s peer review rating system. - Lawyers from our law firm have served on the Board of Governors of the Missouri Association of Trial Attorneys. - Our lawyers have received the President`s Award from the Missouri Association of Trial Attorneys. - Over 95 percent of our clients are referred to us by other attorneys who have seen us in action and trust us with their clients` needs. What Is a Trial Lawyer? Trial lawyer is a term that is tossed around very freely these days. A lot of people say they are trial lawyers, yet they don`t spend much time in the courtroom. We truly are trial lawyers. Here`s why: Our team understands that every case can end up in the courtroom. We prepare all cases to go to trial. This is not a backup plan, used only if settlement negotiations fail. This is something we see as the climax, with settlement negotiations being just one step along the way. Our dedication to positive results will come through clearly. If that convinces the opposition to provide a fair settlement in an auto accident or any other type of case, then so be it. If not, then we will be ready to present your case before a judge and jury."
