- How can a personal injury injury attorney help me?
An attorney experienced in representing personal injury victims and negotiating with insurance companies can analyze your case and determine fair compensation for your losses, including past and future losses. Medical problems caused by an accident may not be fully recognized for months or even years after the accident. Losses from medical bills, decreased earning potential, and many other problems can raise the value of your claim. Further, dealing with medical bills and insurance company negotiations on your own can be a harrowing experience.
- What if I don't realize I'm injured until the next day?
Some injuries do not immediately produce symptoms. As soon as you realize you have an injury related to an accident, seek medical help. It is imperative that medical records document your injury from the earliest possible date.
- How much does it cost to speak with a lawyer?
We offer a FREE initial consultation, during which we will assess your case and discuss all available alternatives.
- How much is my personal injury case worth?
A host of factors impact the amount of your compensation, including the extent of your injuries, physical and mental pain and suffering, the amount and length of medical treatment, economic hardship or financial loss, decreased earning potential, and physical impairment and/or disfigurement. An experienced personal injury lawyer can best estimate the value of your claim.
- Should I accept an insurance company's settlement offer?
Before accepting a settlement, it is always in your best interest to consult an attorney. Adjusters work for the insurance company, not for you. Their job is to settle the matter for the lowest possible cost to the company. An attorney will work for you and ensure that a settlement results in full compensation for your injuries, including money for unanticipated medical expenses.
- Can I settle without going to court?
Many injury claims can be settled for their full value through negotiation, mediation or arbitration, without you having to go to court. However, some complex cases, or cases the insurance company refuses to settle, may require that you participate in legal proceedings.
- How much will my case cost me?
If we take your case, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you owe us nothing unless we recover on your claim. We will be happy to provide you with a complete assessment of what each of your options might cost. This figure will depend on the facts of your case and if a fair settlement is believed possible.
