In fact, she is known among her clients and colleagues for her steadfast commitment to each case she takes on, for winning her clients’ trust, and for her comprehensive approach to legal counsel.. One client praised Cara’s work in a testimonial to the firm, writing:On behalf of our entire family, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for all that your firm did for us during a very difficult process… We are extremely grateful to Cara Luther who literally held our hand through the legal process and not only kept us updated, but helped us to understand throughout the entire evolution. She was very responsive to all questions and provided support to each of us that will never be forgotten. She took the time to listen and provided not only her legal expertise but her compassion for what we were all going through. She knew how difficult losing Patricia was for all of us and she did not force us to relive any details of her death unless absolutely necessary. Thank you just doesn’t seem enough.

Our team capabilities: Our team has not only processed and handled thousands of cases dealing with all kinds of accidents and injuries, from soft tissue to wrongful death, but we have handled them in many different languages including, Spanish, Chinese, Korean, and English. We know that effective communication starts with being able to communicate with the client in their native language.. Our cutting edge technology: We utilize a custom-designed software application known as ClaimTrack (patent pending) that has a three tiered system for improving the way personal injury claims are handled. At the bottom layer, which we call Operations, we have drastically improved the efficiency with which we handle and process all of our cases. The second layer, known as the Provider Portal is where we have the ability to share information, including client index information, provider information, insurance contacts, and more, with relevant third-parties. The third and top layer, which serves as the catalyst for the ClaimTrack system, is the Client Portal, where clients can view all their case information, including claim status, directly from their phone through the ClaimTrack mobile application. The use of ClaimTrack technology and the client portal expedities claims processing, increases claim value, and potentially reduces legal fees for the client.
