For your protection, the following protocol is enforced for all lawyers:

Tavakoli Structured Finance will not accept phone calls or meetings prior to being retained. This prevents false claims by lawyers of having obtained a preliminary opinion and/or false claims that opposing counsel has conflicted out TSF from a case. No information besides terms of business will be provided to prevent designation without permission. Phone calls and meetings will be arranged only after TSF is retained.

The partner in charge of the case - with the authority to hire experts - should send either a letter or an email with full contact details, the case name, including all plaintiffs and defendants, the publicly filed complaint (if applicable), and the requested scope of work. TSF will perform a conflicts check. If there is no conflict, TSF will send its terms and conditions of business. Once these terms are met and TSF is formally engaged, phone calls and meetings will be arranged.
