  • (1888PressRelease) September 28, 2016 - How many lawyers can boast that they actually OWN the courtroom? Power attorney West Seegmiller does and he wouldn't have it any other way. When he recently opened the doors to his new downtown San Diego offices, the one feature he insisted on was a reproduction of an actual courtroom complete with judge's bench, jury box and tables for the plaintiff and defendant.

    This wasn't an aesthetic consideration, but rather a functional space for him to conduct "pre-trials" of his cases. Not one to take his chances before a real jury, Seegmiller recruits mock "juries" to hear his cases first so that he can gain their feedback. He then shapes and reshapes his arguments so when he tries the case in front of an actual jury, little is left to chance.

    "Too many lawyers are quick to settle a case and rarely if ever try one before an actual jury," said Seegmiller, who represents "the underdog, the powerless, and those who otherwise have nowhere else to turn." "The real skills of a lawyer are on display in the courtroom, yet this is no forum for trying your case for the first time. I use our courtroom replica to hold mock tries before focus groups. I learn get their feedback, which has proven so valuable in helping us secure large judgements against some powerful adversaries."

    During his 30+ year career, Seegmiller has scored large settlements against such titans as Coca Cola, Southern California Edison and Rockwell International. He says that most clients who have suffered are seeking justice, not just financial reward. For instance, many of his clients have been victims (or families of victims) of electrocution due to downed powerlines, car accidents, nursing home negligence and workplace incidents and some lawyers will take their case seeking a quick settlement.

    "True justice requires that an attorney invest his time, energy, experience and thoroughness so that no stone is left unturned," he continued. "By adopting that philosophy, my clients enjoy the best outcomes with full value obtained, whether that means the case is litigated in the courtroom or a settlement is reached pre-trial."

    The newly opened Seegmiller Law Firm is located at 450 B Street #1420, San Diego. Call (619) 777-4878 or visit www.seegmillerpersonalinjury.com
