Some salient growth point highlights are as follows

• Of the $25 billion+ we have recovered on behalf of the people in 1988, we have recouped over $8 billion of this total in the past 2 years alone across all 50 states, Washington DC, and the US Virgin Islands.
• We have doubled our national mega-marketing campaigns from $250M to $500M+ since 2023, making Morgan & Morgan the Number 1 company in the nation for out-of-home marketing spend in the nation. This past October, we proudly hired Geico Insurance's former Head of Auto Marketing to serve as our new Chief Marketing Officer and continue our advancement.
• Unlike the vast majority of our competitors, Morgan & Morgan is proud to employ attorneys who can truly call themselves trial attorneys. Last year, we tried 320 cases. In the coming years, we will double that annual number. Attorneys at Morgan & Morgan are not only expected to get trial experience and frequent exposure to the courtroom on their and their colleagues' cases, they are required to. If you are seeking the opportunity to try cases frequently, we are confident that we can and will deliver.
