AlderLaw, PC

AlderLaw, PC AlderLaw represents clients in personal injury, wrongful death, employment disputes and environmental contamination matters. Justice can, and should, be blind.

Backed by experienced attorneys, dedicated staff and technology, we’ve secured multimillion-dollar verdicts and settlements. AlderLaw was founded in 2000 based on this basic tenet: we believe that all people, regardless of race, creed, religion, color, class or ability to pay, should be entitled to the same quality of legal representation that the wealthiest individuals in our society can and do acquire. There should be no “class system” in American justice, where the wealthy corporations and insurance companies hire the “best” lawyers, and the regular folks working hard and making this country run on a day-to-day basis get the legal “leftovers.”

Mr. Alder believes that everyone is entitled to justice, not just the rich or the big corporations able to pay huge legal bills. At AlderLaw, we take seriously the fact that we, as lawyers, took an oath to uphold the United States Constitution, which includes your right to trial by a jury of your peers. We strive to ensure that you feel that you are receiving excellent quality legal representation and that you are not further victimized by the system itself.

A good deposition should make the rest of your discovery stronger.

Lock down the details early. Then use the transcript to eliminate the “we don’t know what you mean” games later.

Simple technique. More precise discovery. Less room to hide. Come on now.

“Policy limits” is not a number.

If you’re trying to put real pressure on a carrier, specificity matters. A vague pre-litigation demand for “policy limits,” especially before you even know what those limits are, may not accomplish what you think it does.

Once you know the policy, make the carrier confront an actual number, supported by the information they need to evaluate the claim.

In the right case, that can completely change the leverage. Know the number. Make the demand. Create the record.

Come on now. ⚖️

A major arbitration ruling just rejected some of Uber’s core defenses.

In Normandin v. Tran/Uber, the arbitrator found Uber could be held vicariously liable for its driver’s negligence as a common carrier, rejecting arguments that Uber is merely a technology platform and that Proposition 22 shields it from this liability. The arbitrator also found Proposition 51 did not limit Uber’s responsibility for noneconomic damages in this case.

The result: $40 million awarded to the victim’s parents, plus $300,000 to the surviving passenger.

This does not establish binding precedent, but it is a public, reasoned rejection of defenses we see repeatedly in rideshare cases.

We have a case involving similar underlying issues heading to trial. Rulings like this reinforce why we don’t value cases based on what a defendant is willing to offer. We value them based on what we can prove.

Sometimes you have to try the case. Come on now.

Make no mistake that these are tactics to delay and discourage. Fight back with depositions, using AI to show timelines to the judge of how documents that are produced years later or available and should have been produced earlier based on their verifications of “a reasonable inquiry“.
