A letter from Charlie Cochran
Many of you visiting our site may be here because you’ve known me for decades as a friend. I may have been your teacher, or perhaps your Mayor or Councilperson. If you’ve lived in Sonoma County for years, the chances are we’ve met. This is my home, from birth. My Grandfather, “Pop Shand”, was the janitor for the old Courthouse. It’s a special source of pride for me that Cochran|Erickson PC is located today on Old Courthouse Square. Why should any of this matter? It matters because when your attorney walks through the door of a mediation or a courtroom, they bring reputation, trust, relationships, wisdom and opportunity with them. Each of these characteristics take on more depth and more impact when the community you serve is the community you love. Do you clearly understand the methods and motivations the firm that represents you embodies? Let me share some specifics that we believe define the difference between some success and great success.
At Cochran|Erickson every case is important, and every case receives what we’ve identified to be the single most important element of legal success - appropriate preparation. Opposition doesn’t take seriously an opponent they don’t believe is prepared to try the case. Whether we represent the injured Plaintiff or defend the party sued, our clients feel confidence in a case positioned to succeed. A clear message to the opposing party is your readiness for trial.
