Caspian Pellerin
Founding attorney
I came to civil litigation through the paperwork: the contract nobody read twice, the policy page that decided a claim. I still start every case there.
A lawsuit is long, and most of it happens on paper before anyone sees a courtroom. I keep my docket small so the lawyer who reads your file is the lawyer who writes the motion, takes the deposition and sits beside you at trial.
I act for plaintiffs and for defendants. Which side you are on changes the strategy, not the standard of care.

Matters
Three places a lawsuit usually starts
The docket is small on purpose. These are the cases Caspian takes, and the page for each says what the work looks like.
Contract and business disputes
An agreement that one side stopped honoring, an owner who locked the other out, a client who never paid.
Contract disputes
Insurance claim disputes
A claim denied, delayed or paid below the damage, and a policy that has to be read line by line.
Insurance claims
Property and condo disputes
Assessments, boundary lines, repairs an association will not make, and defects found after closing.
Property disputes
In their words
From clients, looking back
“The denial letter made no sense to me. By the end I knew what the policy said and what my options were.”
Hesper K.Policyholder, claim denial
“I never felt like a file number. The same lawyer answered every email.”

Sample testimonials. Each client's case is different, and these words describe one client's experience, not a promise of any result.
