What Can I Expect If I Hire a Lawyer After a Car Crash?
The trucking company violated any federal safety laws by failing to perform routine maintenance on the truck, hiring improperly trained drivers, or failing to address the driver's past traffic citations.
Our car accident lawyers use the law to support the facts of an accident and build a solid case for compensation.
What Resources Does a Lawyer Have That Could Help My Claim?
You should expect a car accident lawyer to use various resources to support your personal injury claim. For instance, in complex cases, we call an accident reconstruction specialist to determine how an accident happened and what role negligence played in the crash.
We also call medical professionals to provide opinions on the injuries and long-term prognosis of our clients. When necessary, we can use court-ordered subpoenas to obtain documents, photographs, testimony, and other information for our investigations.
We use all of our professional resources to serve you.
How Will a Car Accident Lawyer Deal With the Insurance Company?
A lawyer should have skills to negotiate a settlement with the at-fault party's insurance company and resolve cases out of court. After filing an insurance claim, our lawyers work toward getting a fair settlement without filing a lawsuit. We know what evidence to collect to prove to an auto insurance company that its policyholder caused the accident and should pay for the damages.
However, some cases merit filing a personal injury lawsuit, especially when an accident involves death or when an insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement. For the most part, we file lawsuits as a last resort.
Will a Lawyer Help Me Get Compensation?
You should expect a lawyer to recover compensation for your monetary losses and property damage from your accident. Our lawyers cannot guarantee you will get a specific amount of compensation, but we will work hard to get you a fair settlement for your claim.
While we can easily figure a dollar amount for physical damages, difficulty comes in when we calculate a dollar amount for non-economic damages. These can include your pain and suffering, emotional distress, and mental anguish.
An insurance adjuster may allege your injuries are not as serious as you claim. We know how to aggressively counter those accusations so you can get the compensation you deserve.
