## CONCLUSION

Weighing all of these factors, we strongly believe that the advantages of joining together the claims of multiple clients, and jointly representing multiple clients, outweigh the potential disadvantages. In addition, since our firm has a great deal of experience representing survivors of sexual abuse and exploitation, we believe there are distinct advantages to our firm representing multiple abuse survivors, including yourself.

Please review the Joint Representation Agreement and this analysis carefully, ask any questions, and consider our advice that you consult with another attorney concerning the issues raised both by our representation of multiple clients and by joining multiple clients in the same case. If you agree with the terms of the agreement and have carefully considered the issues in this overview please review and sign the following Joint Representation and Prosecution Agreement and return this entire document to our office.
