    With close to 10 years experience in the attorney finance business WDT Consulting, Inc. knows the business of contingency-fee legal work. We know your income comes in peaks and valleys, not a steady stream; we understand the value of your portfolio of cases and we know some of the most common ways that trial attorneys miss opportunities to take full advantage of their capital. With their fees endlessly tied up in the next case, many attorneys are frustrated by their inability to expand their firms, offer better employee benefits or take on time-consuming but rewarding cases.

    If you’re ready to take your business to the next level, but you want to get your finances ready, we can help. We can analyze your financial structure and creatively restructure it for maximum access to capital; spot opportunities to lower your taxes; and advise you on how to set up the most advantageous tax situation.
