Why An Attorney Can Make Or Break Your Case
If you’ve been seriously injured—whether by a negligent driver, a careless surgeon, an unsafe condition, or any number of other reasons—you already know that life doesn’t just “bounce back.” Real injuries don’t resolve with a simple insurance payout. They involve pain, disruption, loss of income, and, often, long-term uncertainty.
You deserve more than a settlement mill. You deserve a law firm that treats your case like the only one that matters.
At Boland Aarab PLLP, we specialize in personal injury cases: medical malpractice, car and truck accidents, unsafe premises, and other catastrophic harm. Our firm is built around one main principle: we want to fight for you. Whether we’re negotiating a settlement or standing in front of a jury, we fight for our clients like their lives depend on it—because oftentimes they do.
In today’s blog, we’ll walk through what to look for in a personal injury firm and why those choices matter more than you think.
Some firms avoid trial at all costs. They may advertise heavily, sign hundreds of cases, and resolve them quickly through settlements. While that might sound efficient, it often leaves injured people underpaid and underserved.
Here’s the truth: Insurance companies know which lawyers are willing to go to trial—and which ones aren’t. If your chosen lawyer lacks trial experience or has a reputation for settling early, the other side will offer less. Why would they offer a fair amount if they know your attorney isn’t willing to take your case to trial?
At Boland Aarab, we build every case as if it’s going to trial. We’ve tried numerous civil and criminal cases to verdict in state and federal courts across Montana. We have also successfully appealed cases and argued at the 9th Circuit. We know what it takes to stand in front of a jury, lay out a story, and win. That posture changes the conversation. It changes the tone of negotiations. And it changes your outcome.
Whether you were hit by a distracted truck driver or harmed by a botched medical procedure, you need a lawyer the insurance company respects.
You’d be surprised how many large personal injury firms hand your case off to a junior associate—or worse, to a case manager with no legal training. You may meet the senior attorney once during intake, only to find yourself navigating the process alone or talking to someone who has never set foot in a courtroom.
That doesn’t happen at Boland Aarab.
We’re a boutique firm that takes a selective number of cases so we can give each one the attention it deserves. If we take your case, you’ll work directly with a trial-tested attorney who understands the stakes and knows how to win. We answer your calls, we walk you through the strategy, we keep you apprised of what is happening with your case, and we make sure you’re never in the dark.
Some injuries are obvious. Others are not. A soft tissue injury after a car accident might seem minor—until it persists for years. A surgical injury might be buried in electronic medical records and go unnoticed unless someone knows what to look for.
Winning these cases requires more than compassion. It requires medical knowledge, investigative skill, and expert coordination.
At Boland Aarab, we have years of experience handling:
Each of these requires a different approach—but all of them require a firm that understands how serious the consequences are.
We believe in educating our clients and keeping them involved every step of the way. That’s not just good service—it’s good lawyering.
Clients who understand their case become better witnesses, better advocates for themselves, and better decision-makers. You should never feel pressured into accepting a settlement or confused about what’s happening. If your lawyer talks in circles or hides behind legal jargon, it might be time to ask why.
At Boland Aarab, we don’t talk down to you. The law can be complex and confusing, especially if you are not familiar with it. We work hard to ensure that you understand each step of this complex process. We work as a team to lay out your options and give you honest advice—not just what we think you want to hear. You get straight answers and a clear path forward.
Some firms just want volume. We want results. We’re not here to churn cases or cut corners. We’re here to build something lasting—for our clients and our community.
We’ve built an established firm in Montana by going the hard route: taking tough cases, fighting entrenched institutions, and doing the work ourselves. We’ve changed Montana law, secured six-figure jury verdicts in conservative venues, and held professionals accountable for harm that others tried to bury.
Real Results. Real People.
When you’re hurt, it’s easy to feel like a number. The world keeps moving, the bills pile up, and your injuries get second-guessed by people who weren’t there.
At Boland Aarab, we don’t see you as a file—we see you as a person with a story to tell. And we know how to tell it.
When Should You Call?
Right away.
Evidence disappears. Witnesses forget. And insurance companies get to work immediately to minimize their exposure. If you’ve been injured, the best time to speak with a lawyer is as soon as possible—before you sign anything or talk to an adjuster.
We offer free consultations. No pressure, no gimmicks. Just an honest conversation about your options.
Final Thoughts
Not every lawyer can handle a serious injury case. Not every firm is ready to stand up to national insurers or walk into a courtroom against a major hospital’s legal team.
We are.
At Boland Aarab PLLP, we take our responsibility seriously. We fight hard. We care deeply. And we don’t stop until we get justice.
