Our Philosophy of Practice
Fryar Law Firm takes its mission to protect the rights of business owners very seriously.  We have given a lot of thought to our
methods and objectives in practice so that we will achieve our mission.

Philosophy

  • greater SPEED -- you need your lawyer's attention now. You need answers to your legal questions now.  Business owners
    cannot afford lengthy legal battles.  Our methods are designed to respond to your needs quickly and to end legal disputes as
    speedily as possible.

  • unusual INGENUITY -- outside the box thinking aimed at producing winning strategies and solutions.

  • unprecedented ACCESSIBILITY -- you will never wonder what is going on in your case. Our systems are set up to afford you
    instant access to the status of you case and to your case file and calendar 24-7.

  • maximum PREDICTABILITY and COST EFFICIENCY -- Our billing methods are aimed at providing maximum predictability of
    the costs of litigation. Our methods of case preparation incorporate risk analysis that predicts to the maximum extent possible
    the value and likely outcome of litigation.

Methods

Fryar Law Firm has sought out methods of practice designed to achieve our philosophy, and we are constantly searching for ways to
improve.

  • We are an ALL MACINTOSH FIRM. After much investigation, we have committed to the extra expense of equipping all of our
    attorneys and key support staff with Apple Macs and MacBooks. We believe that the greater speed, reliability, capability, and
    security of the Apple platform allows us to provide great legal services on a more cost-effective basis.

  • We are PAPERLESS and MOBILE. Some might refer to us as a "virtual law firm" in that we maintain a minimal physical offices
    and most of our attorneys work from home or on the road. All of our documents are kept in electronic form and are available to
    everyone on the team over a secure internet virtual network. This method of practice greatly reduces our overhead and allows
    us incredible flexibility. More importantly, our attorneys can practice effectively almost anywhere.  There is little difference to us
    whether the case is filed down the street or across the country.

  • We take maximum advantage of the newest COLLABORATION TOOLS.  Most of our communications are by Skype video
    conference, which also allows face-to-face meetings with clients and our trial teams at anytime. Our clients have direct, secure
    access to their case files and calendars and can take a direct role in the preparation of their cases. We use an on-line billing
    system that allows clients to know exactly how and for what they are being billed, and to pay electronically if they wish.

  • We utilize sophisticated TRIAL PREPARATION and PRESENTATION TECHNOLOGY. We are able to make persuasive and
    informative presentations at trial and have the ability to generate our trial materials without the excessive cost of outside
    consultants.

  • We use LEAN and EFFICIENT STAFFING. Unlike many firms, we use one lawyer per task for most of our preparation work.
    Our approach is to determine early what we need and to limit our discovery efforts to the essentials.  We don't take many
    depositions, but the ones we take are critical and well-prepared. We find the best way to obtain a favorable settlement or to
    resolve a case on a dispositive motion is to begin preparing to take the case to trial from day one.

  • But by far, the greatest value that we deliver to our clients comes from our NARROW PRACTICE FOCUS.  By focusing our
    practice area on shareholder oppression and the rights of business owners, we go into every case thoroughly familiar with the
    legal issues, most useful tactics, and best approaches in these types of cases.  We do not have to reinvent the wheel. We
    already know the traps for the unwary and the mistakes that are frequently made on both sides of these kinds of disputes. The
    extensive materials that we make available on this site and in our blog and newsletter are not only a way of sharing our existing
    expertise, but are the primary method that we stay on top of significant developments in our chosen area of practice.
