Because of the complexity and subtly of medical and legal issues in most personal injury cases, it is necessary to employ the services of an attorney who has a proven track record in personal injury cases. This is especially true, given the fact that, today, most insurance companies will push these cases into court because they will not make an adequate settlement offer.
If you should need the assistance of an attorney, here are some questions you should ask:
- How many years has the attorney been in practice?
- How many cases does your attorney currently handle?
- What percentage of his/her practice is devoted to handling plaintiff's personal injury?
- Does the attorney actually handle the case or is there an associate attorney who will be doing all the work?
- hat experience does this attorney have with the sort of injury that you have?
- What are the terms by which this attorney may be retained?
- What kind of rapport do you have with this attorney? (This is very important)
Retaining competent counsel to advise you concerning your case and then pursuing an adequate recovery is extremely important for you.
