Nobody dreams of the day

when they contact a

personal injury lawyer to

discuss an accident. If you

find yourself in this

position, it means you or a

loved one has been

injured, likely due to the

negligence of another

party, and you are looking

into your legal options.

One of the primary benefits of speaking with a personal injury lawyer is that you

can have all your questions answered in a timely and accurate manner. The same

cannot be said if you decide to search for answers on your own, as you will never

truly know if you are collecting the right information.

Before we go any further, it is important to remember this: you have to take care

of your health above all else. No matter what it takes, make sure you are getting

the treatment you need to stabilize your health and feel better about what the

future holds.

Questions for a Personal Injury Attorney

It doesn’t matter what type of accident you were involved in or what types of

injuries you suffered, a personal injury lawyer is more than willing to step in and

provide assistance. Even if you don’t have the grounds for filing a claim, you can

trust that a reputable attorney will tell you why and then explain what else you

can do.

To clear the air, you should schedule a consultation with a personal injury lawyer

as soon as possible. During this time, you are in position to ask a variety of

questions, all of which are meant to help you better understand your situation.

Here are five common questions you should consider asking:

Do I have a case? If the answer is yes, it is safe to assume that you will

have many other questions. If the answer is no, your conversation will

go down a different path.

How much money can I recover for my injuries and other damages?

This is one of the most difficult questions you can ask a personal

injury lawyer, but it is one that you should throw out there

nonetheless. You may not get an exact number for an answer, but you

can at least begin to discuss the many scenarios that could play out.

What steps do I need to take moving forward? There are things you

should be doing, such as keeping track of your medical bills. There are

also things that you should avoid, such as having contact with

insurance companies or other people involved in the accident. Let

your attorney give you guidelines as to how you will play a part

moving forward.

Will you be able to communicate with others on my behalf? The last

thing you want to do is say something that will hinder your ability to

collect. This is why you want an attorney who can communicate on

your behalf, such as with insurance companies.

Can you give me a basic idea of the timeline? No two personal injury cases

are the same, so there is no way of knowing for sure how everything will

turn up. Your attorney should be able to provide you with a basic timeline,

giving you an idea of what to expect as each month goes by.

It doesn’t matter what questions you have or what you have done thus far, you

owe it to yourself to speak with an attorney about your accident.

this reason, you should feel comfortable opening up. This is the best way to

obtain professional advice and guidance.
