On April 13th, Attorney Rob Rausch presented to the Business Builders Alliance on the “life of a claim.” Rob explained the various phases of personal injury and commercial litigation, and discussed how an incident can progress from an initial claim, to a Summons and Complaint, through the “discovery” stage, and eventually to trial, including the various points at which claims are settled. He emphasized that only a small portion of claims actually go to trial, and that the vast majority of cases are resolved at an early point in time, often without the need for formal litigation.
Business Builders Alliance was founded in 2002 and is a networking and professional development group focused on developing business opportunities and relationships. Members include a wide variety of small business owners and entrepreneurs in the Capital Region. Rob has been a member of the organization for ten years.
