Outside Trial Counsel
Some cases call for more than one trial lawyer. When a matter warrants it, Manny Chahal may bring in outside trial counsel, including Jon Marko of Marko Law, which reports more than $2 billion recovered for its clients. Mr. Marko practices independently of this office. Any such arrangement requires the client’s informed written consent to the arrangement and the fee division. Results in other lawyers’ cases do not predict the outcome of yours.
