It’s also not uncommon for people to find themselves needing legal assistance after an accident, injury, or illness. When this happens, it’s important that they choose a lawyer who is experienced in the field of personal injury law – and who will give them expert advice on how to deal with their issues. Here are the top five reasons to hire a personal injury attorney!
1) You’ll Be Able to Focus on Your Recovery!
Your #1 concern after being injured is getting treatment! Your personal injury lawyer will take all the other stresses off of you so you can focus on getting the adequate treatment that you need!
2) A Personal Injury Attorney Knows the Value of Your Case
The average person is unfamiliar with how much they could get through their personal injury claim
Your attorney will:
- analyze your injures
- asses your pain and suffering
- factor in the insurance company’s strategy
- estimate future medical needs after a consultation with a medical professional
3) They Are Experts In The Legal Procedures of a Personal Injury Claim
Lawyers know exactly how insurance companies will try to one-up you. Handling your personal injury claim on your own will lead you down a rabbit hole with the insurance companies. Since they believe that the average person is unfamiliar with the personal injury process, they will try to low-ball their offers and coverages.
4) Saves You Time
Hiring a personal injury attorney saves you hours in talking to the insurance companies and trying to figure out what to do next
5) Settlements are Higher!
According to a study done by the Insurance Research Council, those who hire a personal injury attorney receive a 3.5 times larger settlement than those who settle with the insurance adjuster on their own.
