Today’s costs for medical bills, prescription drugs, lost wages and long-term health care can be very expensive. Big corporations and insurance companies are difficult to deal with, and they attempt to pay the least amount of compensation possible, or nothing at all for property damage, serious injuries or wrongful death.
There are several reasons why you’d be in a much better position to bring forth a personal injury claim represented by an experienced attorney.
Objectivity and Legal Knowledge
A skilled personal injury attorney can offer extensive knowledge as to how the facts of your case apply to the law and assess all weaknesses in your case. As noted above, big corporations and insurance companies will do all in their power to deny a claim even when it’s meritorious. There are certain parameters, rules, civil procedures and strategies that an experienced attorney can employ to posture your claim in the best position.
Skilled Negotiation
Big businesses use tactics to convince injury victims that their claims are worth less than they are. In many cases, they send unreasonably low settlement offers to injury victims in the hope that they will agree to accept the offers. More often than not, having strong legal representation results in larger settlements. An experienced attorney with aggressive, yet professional negotiation skills will posture your case for a successful outcome. Even better, is having an attorney who has actually worked on the other side, and is well-tuned with the negotiating strategies the defense will present to beat down your case.
Leveling the Playing Field
Insurance companies and at-fault parties often aggressively defend against injury claims. If you try to represent yourself, you will likely have to face a defense attorney hired by the insurance company, and he or she will likely have much more knowledge about the law and the claims process than you. Having your own attorney can help to even the playing field and ensure no critical errors are made.
Expedite & Access
It is best for you to contact a personal injury attorney right after your incident. Doing so can expedite the process because your attorney can file the claim on your behalf while you are still recovering and actively engage in discussions, negotiations and legal arguments with the other side from the very beginning. Some doctors refuse to treat injury accident victims because they do not want to be involved in potential litigation. We regularly work with doctors and specialists and can help you find someone who will not only properly treat you, but communicate with and timely inform us of the status of your treatment and recovery.
Peace of Mind
Sometimes, accidents may result in fatalities. Other times, they may cause post-traumatic stress and intense emotional trauma. Following up on personal injury claims at such a time may be very stressful. Experienced attorneys will handle all the complicated aspects of your claim, giving you the peace of mind knowing your case is handled and you can put all your focus on getting better.
You Don’t Pay Unless You Win
There is nothing to lose but everything to gain. You pay nothing out of pocket and only pay your attorneys if you win. The law requires that a negligent party be held accountable if all required elements are proven and an experienced litigation attorney can do just that. You deserve compensation for your injuries caused to you physically, emotionally and mentally, as well as all other associated out of pocket costs imposed upon you as a result of another’s negligence.
