ABOUT US CONTENTS: Mission
Mission More than a Healthcare Law Firm Focused on Eastern Washington Community-Based By focusing its practice on the healthcare industry in Eastern Washington, The Rodgers Law Firm is communicating its commitment to our community. When our healthcare system hits hard times, The Rodgers Law Firm will not abandon our community in search for higher-paying clients. Instead, The Rodgers Law Firm is committed to helping build and sustain a vibrant healthcare system for the long term, right here at home. The Local Advantage Cost. The Rodgers Law Firm can typically offer services at a lower rate than big-city firms. Lower Expenses. Running a law firm is cheaper here in Eastern Washington. The cost of living — and real estate in particular — is roughly 30% to 50% cheaper in Tri-Cities than in the Seattle area (ACCRO Cost of Living Index, 2008). Moreover, The Rodgers Law Firm does not have to pay for expensive office suites in high-rise buildings. In virtually all cases, The Rodgers Law Firm will meet you at your place of business, at your convenience. As a result, The Rodgers Law Firm’s expenses are lower than those in comparable big-city firms. Less Travel. Most big-city firms bill for travel time and expenses. If an attorney from Seattle visits a facility in Prosser, for example, that means 6 hours of billable time for driving, plus mileage for 400 miles. The Rodgers Law Firm does not charge for travel within a one-hour radius. That means no travel time or travel expenses will be billed to clients from Yakima to Walla Walla, north to Moses Lake. Knowledge of Our Local Healthcare System. The Rodgers Law Firm is sensitive to the specific needs of our community’s healthcare system. We have rural facilities, for instance, and some Disproportionate Share facilities. We have population characteristics that present specific needs for delivering quality health services. Some of our facilities have limited resources and operate at or above capacity. These and other factors affect the types of legal services our healthcare providers need. The Rodgers Law Firm is focused on meeting our healthcare community’s specific needs. Commitment to Our Community. The Rodgers Law Firm is a member of our community, and deeply cares about our healthcare system. In many cases, The Rodgers Law Firm offers discounted rates to non-profit, charity, or disproportionate share facilities that would otherwise have difficulty paying legal fees.
