What Is a National "Mill" Firm?
A national mill firm is a national firm who claims to help people in many sections of the country. The national mill firms will try to get you a quick, but low settlement and is more interested the quantity of its clients rather than the quality of its results. Their support staff, which is usually not located in Virginia, does all the work rather than a Virginia lawyer. Even if they claim to have a lawyer in Virginia, he or she is often just a "storefront" so they can say you will be represented by a local lawyer.

Our Settlements and Trial Results Average 30% Higher Than Those from the National Mill Firms
You could go with a national mill firm. You'll probably pay a smaller fee, but you'll probably also receive a smaller settlement. As with most things in life, you get what you pay for!
National mill firms prioritize case volume over the quality of work they provide their clients. Because of this, they're more likely to pressure you into settling your claim for less than the full potential value. This way they can mark you down as another "successfully settled" case and move on to the next client on their list.
At The Consumer Law Group, P.C. we are not afraid to take a case to trial if that's what's needed to get you the outcome that you deserve. In some instances, it may be the right choice to settle before a trial, but we will never pressure you to settle your claim if a trial is the better option. Unlike the large and impersonal national firms, we take our relationship with our clients seriously, and always act in your best interest, even if that means extra work.
