Why Do You Need a Personal Injury Attorney?
If you have suffered an injury caused by someone else’s negligence, you could be left with medical bills, lost wages, and other costs. That is why personal injury lawsuits exist. An experienced personal injury attorney can help you hold the negligent person or business responsible for their negligence and entitle you to receive compensation.
What to do in case of an injury?
- If physically able, make sure to remove yourself from further injury.
- Call 911 and make sure to receive medical attention.
- Make sure to exchange insurance information with the at fault driver.
- If physically able, take pictures, videos of the accident location prior to the dangerous conditions being moved/corrected.
- If physically able, gather the name of any witnesses that observed the accident or have any relevant information.
- Contact an attorney to evaluate your case.
**In many states, you must visit a qualified physician within a few days in order to be able to collect portions of the insurance coverage.
What is my case worth?
The value of your case depends on a few crucial factors: the circumstances surrounding your accident, the severity of the injuries you sustained, limits on insurance coverage, and a variety of other factors. When conducting an analysis of what your case is worth, you should consider your past and future medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of earning capacity, and loss of consortium. Your attorney will help you evaluate these factors by reviewing your medical bills, police reports, witness statements, and other evidence.
