Why Hire a Serious Injury Attorney?

While a lot in life is left up to chance, ensuring that you get the compensation you deserve following a personal injury shouldn’t be. That’s where your personal injury attorney comes in. Here are seven solid reasons why you should hire a personal injury attorney.

1. You Have a Serious Injury

When pursuing a serious injury claim in court, there are many hoops to jump through to ensure you are receiving proper compensation. All while you are suffering under the severe effects of a long-term or permanent injury. A serious injury claim requires witness statements, diagnoses, and hypotheses from the doctors and specialists who provided you with medical care. Therefore, it is vital to have an attorney who will gather and organize all medical documents needed for your case. They will ensure that the correct verbiage is used and calculate the compensation you are due.

2. You Do Not Know Your Case Worth

Sometimes you just don’t know where to begin. What can you claim compensation for? How do you claim compensation for potentially ambiguous damages, such as “pain and suffering” or disfigurement? A personal injury attorney will offer expert guidance to ensure that you are receiving the maximum compensation based on your experience.

3. The Settlement Offer is Unjust

When insurers receive news of a potential claim, they typically rush out a hasty settlement to the injured party, often before the claim is even officially made. This tactic plays against the immediate needs of the injured party since it is “quick money” that can help them now. However, this settlement is often low-balling what the injured party will need to cover the extensive financial setbacks from the injury. We always recommend calling your personal injury attorney before accepting any settlements, as they will offer insight as to if you deserve higher compensation.

4. Your Case Goes to Trial

While most personal injury claims can be settled through negotiations, the claim will proceed to trial if the parties cannot agree on a settlement. Navigating the nuances of law is no small feat. There are often thousands of laws, regulations, and policies in play that can trip up any legitimate personal injury claim that doesn’t have the assistance of a personal injury attorney. Your attorney will be your most prominent advocate, and they will ensure that you are not taken advantage of due to personal inexperience or inability.

5. To Expedite the Claims Process

In many serious injury cases, you will be forced to wait until you are fully recovered to the best that you can before pursuing the settlement due to needing the “full scope” of the costs. This is definitely not ideal, seeing as life doesn’t just stop costing money. However, an experienced personal injury attorney will be able to get your compensation plan in the works even while you’re still recuperating since they can use past experience to anticipate expected setbacks and expenses in order to avoid them.

6. Meeting Deadlines & Timelines

Deadlines vary wildly for each type of serious injury claim—and the deadlines are strict and non-negotiable. Known as the statute of limitations, this process can be extremely time-consuming and confusing for the inexperienced. You will be required to acquire and organize copious amounts of medical records, witness statements, and supporting documents according to this timeline, or you may lose your right to compensation. Having an expert personal injury attorney on your side will ensure that nothing is missed.

7. General Experience & Know-How

The best time to speed-read courses worth of legalese is definitely not after you have experienced a personal injury. With a personal injury attorney, you get the full experience and education of their entire career. That means that you do not have to figure out the complexities of your insurance policy, state regulations, or medical expenses on your own. They have done this before and will work with your best interests at heart. When you have a personal injury attorney on your side, all you have to focus on is healing.
