The Value of Strategic Co-Counsel
Denver Trial and Appellate Attorney Beth Krulewitch
In most litigation, pivotal legal issues that can make or break your case will be 
decided by the trial court judge. While legal errors can be reversed on appeal, critical issues of fact may not be open to appeal.
If you lose on an issue that breaks your case, the likely outcome is that you will be forced to settle. If not, you will most probably have to finish trying the case before appealing the ruling. Even if you are successful, you may have try the case again on remand. The expense and additional time before your client sees results can be unacceptable.
When trial lawyers look back over a case they have just tried, it is often obvious that if they could have anticipated all the key issues they could have made a more coherent overall argument and framed the issues more favorably. Strategic co-counsel can give you that tactical advantage.
An experienced trial and appellate attorney can anticipate the likely issues for summary judgment and motions in limine, allowing you to structure your case in advance rather than reactively. Obtaining co-counsel to observe and anticipate issues can help you choreograph your case and develop the decisive issues more methodically.
