How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?

 

Ever heard of the quip, “It’s not what you know, but who you know.”  In many respects this rings true in the law as well.  Because I have been a Pocatello Police Officer and an Idaho State Police Trooper, I have developed relationships within the field of law enforcement that have been extremely helpful to many of my personal injury cases.  A lot of officers are wary of attorneys and are reluctant to speak freely to them.  However, because of the relationships I have with these officers, many of them are willing to speak to me freely about their thoughts and insights of their cases or even cases they weren’t involved in but may have expertise in.  Knowing the people involved in the investigation of collisions has been extremely important to the success of many cases.  Stephen Muhonen
