If you have been seriously injured through someone else’s negligence, choosing a law firm to handle your claim for compensation may be one of the most important decisions you make. In your search for a team of personal injury lawyers, you may consult with different firms to discover what type of law firm you need to best serve your interests. Your search may reveal that small firms have certain advantages over large firms.
What Are the Advantages of Working with a Small Law Firm?
Size can be an important consideration in choosing a personal injury law firm. Although there are pros and cons for both, small firms offer distinct advantages over large firms, including the following:
- Personal touch: You will likely develop a direct, personal relationship with your attorney when you work with a small personal injury law firm. A lawyer who knows you will have a better understanding of your needs and be better able to protect your interests.
- More attention: Small firms with fewer clients can devote more attention to your case. The entire legal team will likely recognize you on sight and know something about your case.
- Flexibility: Small law firms can be more flexible, based on what is most convenient for individual client needs.
- Communication: Clients represented by small firms typically have easier, quicker access to their attorneys when they need it. Small firm lawyers may be more available to communicate directly with their clients.
- Lower fees: Small firms have fewer employees and lower overhead, so they are able to charge less in fees.
- Specialization: Small, boutique law firms that practice primarily in a specific legal area may be a better choice because they offer experience and expertise pertaining to your particular legal situation.

Are There Reasons Why Large Firms May Not Be Ideal for Severe or Unique Cases?
If you have been severely injured or have a unique situation, a large firm may not be an ideal choice for several possible reasons. Large, “settlement mill” firms may tend to move things along by settling cases, when it may not be in your best interests. A lay person with little or no experience in legal matters may feel lost in the crowd when dealing with a large firm. Big firms tend to have established rules for the way they run their practice, which may not allow for the flexibility you need. Last but not least, large law firms are expensive to run and tend to charge higher fees.
