When you or a loved one is hurt in a car or truck accident, burned or injured by chemical exposure, hurt on a construction site, or simply frustrated by an insurance company that has refused to pay benefits that are owed, it's time you talked with a licensed injury lawyer. This article exists to help you better understand where to begin in the hunt for a good injury lawyer.
How experienced should the law firm be that you choose? An injury lawyer should be more than just "competent." The firm you choose could mean the difference between not getting what you deserve and being wildly surprised by the outcome. The law firm that you choose to represent you should be "remarkable". The injury and accident lawyer you end up selecting, should provide you with all the resources needed to help with all aspects of your case, answer important questions, prepare voraciously for trial, try your case (if need be) and always be prepared to argue forcefully on your behalf.
You want a firm with experience but also hungry enough to exceed all your expectations. They should be willing to do whatever is necessary to get you compensation to more than cover damages you have suffered, which may include but are not limited to, medical and surgical costs, lost work time and wages, anxiety, pain & suffering, mileage and many out of pocket costs that you may face. Do not select a firm that does not follow up with you promptly. Look for a firm that has a reputation for being tough but fair, intelligent and compassionate. You need to be made to feel comfortable through the entire process that issues are being handled the correct way. At the same time, they need to send a message, loud and clear, to the insurance companies and liable parties that they mean business. A good firm will not hesitate to throw their credentials around for the benefit of the client.
Injury and accident victims often find themselves in a kind of shock after a traumatic event and do not always act swiftly enough. When a scary event disrupts everything in their world, it is only human nature to "wait a beat" to get your thoughts together before moving forward, but this is a dangerous approach and may not be the best idea. Here's the reason why: Evidence from the accident or injury may get lost or even be destroyed in the hours and days after the accident. Witness recollections will grow fainter and more inaccurate as time passes after the incident. Even your own memory of the event will give way to hazier, less accurate memories. And even worse, if you wait too long after the accident or injury, you may lose your ability to make a claim altogether, even if you have compelling evidence on your side, due to the "statute of limitations" in that state.
Each personal injury case is unique and needs to be looked at by an experienced injury lawyer. Choose an accident lawyer that will give you the time and attention you deserve and need to win your case. Be sure they listen astutely to what you want and need and help you feel calm, comfortable, and taken care of throughout your case. Most injury law firms takes cases on a contingency basis. This means that until they win a trial verdict or reach a settlement, you do not owe anything.
