Tactical Lawyers: our mission and story

We founded Tactical Lawyers to provide client‑first counsel that gets results quickly. Led by Grant Van Der Jagt, JD (Castle Rock, CO), our team has extensive experience in Personal Injury and Estate Planning, plus the cross‑disciplinary knowledge to find paths to recovery and protection across insurance, real estate, tax, business, and litigation.

If you were injured and not at fault, we prioritize your medical treatment while we map coverage and build your claim. If you’re planning your estate, we design tax‑aware plans that coordinate with property titles, business entities, and insurance. Across all matters, we keep communication clear and timelines realistic.

  • Same‑day responsiveness for new consultations whenever possible.
  • Treatment‑first injury representation with coordinated medical care.
  • Tax‑aware estate planning that aligns with real estate and business goals.
  • Transparent scopes, timelines, and next steps from intake through resolution.

  • Same‑day or next‑business‑day responses for new inquiries whenever possible.
  • Treatment coordination for injury clients while we build liability and damages proof.
  • Secure document exchange and e‑signing; updates via your preferred channel.

Frequently asked questions

Clear firm information to help you decide next steps.

Are consultations confidential?
Yes. Your information is protected and reviewed only for evaluating representation under applicable rules. We also run conflicts checks before any engagement begins.
Do you handle urgent matters?

How do you communicate case updates?
We confirm your preferred channels (phone, email, or secure portal) and an update schedule during intake.
How fast can I speak with a lawyer?
Many new consultations receive same‑day guidance. If scheduling is tight, we confirm the earliest available time and what you can do in the meantime.
Do you work with outside experts?
Yes. When useful, we involve subject‑matter experts (e.g., medical, engineering, financial) to strengthen evidence and clarify damages and causation.
