We will get to work for you fast!
We encourage you to come to us soon after your accident if your injuries allow, or have a trusted family member or friend make contact. If the two-year “window” is to too near, we may not be able to prepare your case. Also, we’ll be learning a lot about how your injury happened, and if it is fresh in your mind it will work in your favor.
A personal injury lawyer handles many kinds of cases:
- Vehicle wreck claims
- Slip-and-fall accidents
- Wrongful death
- Medical errors
- Professional negligence
- Injuries in the workplace
- Construction injuries to passersby
- Animal and dog bites
If the cause of your injury is not on that list, you should still contact our firm. You will find we give an open ear combined with an open mind to get you the compensation you deserve.
What happens when you consult a personal injury lawyer?
We will be looking for details, and so you can expect us to ask a lot of questions, but always in a caring manner you would expect from someone who is on your side. We will need official information, for instance approval to get your medical records. From the start we are preparing your case to go to trial, and we get ready quickly and prepare aggressively.
- It may turn out that we negotiate a settlement with the party at fault, or with an insurance company. But when we have good information at the start, your personal injury lawyer can get you what you deserve. Lawyers and insurance companies know our track record for aggressive “wins”. When they see we are ready, they get ready to settle.
The next step is to file the lawsuit with the court and pay the filing fee. You are not paying for any of these kinds costs or attorney fees unless we win your case or get you a settlement. There is no cost to you throughout the process until it ends in your favor; if it doesn’t, you pay nothing.
The “discovery” period is when your personal injury lawyer is required to give documents to the party you are suing (which they have to give us, too). You may have to be examined by a doctor of their choice. Remember, we are with you all of the way through this.
- Discovery may be the period when we agree on a settlement. Our work for you is to get what is fair, given the suffering, pain and financial impact on you.
If we can’t settle, we go to trial. A lot of insurers and other lawyers want to avoid this. They know that as a personal injury lawyer we work aggressively for the individual who has been hurt, and wronged. Often during trial the other side comes forward with a settlement. If not, we win verdicts for our clients.
