Date: March 2nd, 2018 11:58 AM Author: pearl cerebral national security agency This year has been nuts with files. Been signing up over 30 a month and that's AFTER I've given 60-70 cases away to Kenny and Chandler since December. I'm still waiting on my fees from the million dollar settlement I recently had (I'm owed a few hundred in fees right now on settled cases). So that isn't included. I also have an eight figure case in the pipeline.
We are currently have slightly over 300 active files, 90% are car accidents. I think I have 6 or 7 active files that were referred to me through XO too and I'm working on 4 files with other lawyers from XO as co-counsel.
Business has still been growing a lot. I've been pretty stressed out to be honest. This year I went legit with paying my staff on payroll. So everything now is being payrolled properly and I have two full-time paralegals. My filing fee costs show as almost zero, but that's because my process service company now advances the filing fees and then charges my credit card. So all my filing fees show up under outside services (under their bill).

I bought a bunch of expensive watches last year but that was a one time thing. Other than that, I couldn't even name anything I would really want to buy.

|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 12:24 PM Author: pearl cerebral national security agency Dude, I have like 0.00001% of the market. The PI market in LA is HUGE. There are guys that I've never heard of with like 500-1000 files. And I know a lot of people in the PI community. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3908085&forum_id=2#35520521) |
|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 12:30 PM Author: concupiscible philosopher-king Let's say you have .01% of the market. That means there's 10000 six-figure collisions a day in a market of 20 million. Meaning as a LA resident you will get in, on average, .18 six-figure collisions a year. Seems legit (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3908085&forum_id=2#35520566) |
|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 12:40 PM Author: pearl cerebral national security agency I don't know the numbers but I do know that people get in six-figure collisions all the time. But most attorneys suck and don't know how to turn small accidents into good settlements or people think their accident is minor so they don't pursue anything. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3908085&forum_id=2#35520606) |
|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 12:59 PM Author: concupiscible philosopher-king In the entire country of Canada (population 35 million) there were 150K individuals injured in vehicular accidents for the most recent year with statistics available (2014). https://www.tc.gc.ca/media/documents/roadsafety/cmvtcs2014_eng.pdf This would be 400 victims a day.
Greater LA is half that population (18 million) meaning 200 a day if we assume similar rates of collisions. Even if we assume that every single person "injured" in an accident obtains a lawyer and obtains damages of at least $100K that would mean based on the numbers you're reporting (20 settlements a month or 240 per year with an average fee of 30K ) you have 0.3% of the greater LA market. |
|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 12:15 PM Author: Effete set mad cow disease How many hours go into your average cases? Do most settle before or after filing a complaint? |
|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 12:24 PM Author: pearl cerebral national security agency 85% settle pre-lit. I would guess a few hours of my own time per file. Unless it goes to lit and then a few more hours for depo prep and depo. My paralegals do my discovery and I outsource some of it too. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3908085&forum_id=2#35520527) |
|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 12:28 PM Author: Effete set mad cow disease So feasibly someone could make millions per year just sending pre-lit demand letters followed up by negotiating in a few follow up letters, never filing a case? You could just write letters all day and refer anything out if it gets to lit? Sounds chill as fuck. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3908085&forum_id=2#35520551) |

Date: March 2nd, 2018 10:42 PM Author: bright appetizing casino Honestly no bullshit, what separates a 100k/yr from a 500k/YEAR PI lawyer? I'm not even talking about 1M+/yr but if there are three tiers of factors, please include.
I.e., why do some always end up barely treading water and others are able to ramp up to midlaw partner money and yet others find a way to make fuck you money (1M+) consistently? |
|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 11:20 PM Author: pearl cerebral national security agency There are a lot of factors. The biggest one is how good of a business person you are and/or how good your social skills are. The 100k PI lawyer probably has very little business acumen and not great social skills. Literally to make 100K in PI you need like 20-30 reasonable cases and low overhead. If my goal was 100K/yr I could do that working 5-10 hours a month. I could literally do meth all day and probably clear 200k/year.
If you are a good business person and have some decent starting capital you can build a good marketing plan and your business can come in through paid marketing/advertising. Or, if you have great personal skills you can bring in business through networking. I am the latter.
The other factors are how good are you at getting cases to full value. I have 300+ cases but I net WAY more than my suite mate who has 500+ cases. I get a lot more money per case than he does. I micromanage everything and I am extremely good at convincing clients to treat and get injections. Most PI attorneys don't monitor their cases and mostly have clients just do chiro. My average case settles for tens of thousands where my suite mate's average case settles for like 5-8k.

|
Date: March 2nd, 2018 11:54 PM Author: pearl cerebral national security agency There apparently were 238,000 injured people in car accidents in 2013. So that means between me and my buddy we repped 1 in 278 people. But also, we do slip and falls, dog bites, and other premises cases too. So 100% of my cases are not auto accidents.
I'm not sure if you are getting at that you don't believe me or not, but what I'm saying has been confirmed by dozens of posters, may whom have met me in RL and seen my caseload (either at my home or on my phone through dropbox). |

edit: oh, I didn't finish reading |
|
Date: March 3rd, 2018 10:47 AM Author: pearl cerebral national security agency You apparently didn't read the entire original post. Here is the relevant part:
"My filing fee costs show as almost zero, but that's because my process service company now advances the filing fees and then charges my credit card. So all my filing fees show up under outside services (under their bill)."
As of 2018, my process service/filing company doesn't want a check for filing fees. They pay it themselves and just add it to my invoice every month. That is why my outside services line item is so high. Because all my filing fees go there now as part of their invoice. |
