Simple Tips On What You Should Expect From Your Personal Injury Lawyer
- June 18, 2018
If it is your first time hiring a Personal Injury Attorney to help with your accident case, you may be wondering what to expect.
If you were involved in an accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence, hiring a personal injury attorney to file your claim is going to be your best chance at receiving the compensation that you are owed for your losses.
When you hire a Personal Injury Attorney, you can expect the following:
I met with Harry Brown personally and he sat with me for 20 minutes at our initial consultation to explain everything. He even called after my surgery to see how I was doing. I met with him several more times after that and was kept informed about my case throughout. I highly recommend Harry Brown as an attorney.
Free Consultation
First and foremost, Personal Injury Lawyers typically offer a free, no-obligation consultation for those who have been involved in an accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence.
For example, at The Brown Firm, you will speak with one of our experienced lawyers to discuss the circumstances of your case.
This is where our lawyers will listen and ask questions about the details of your accident.
Below are 6 common questions:
- Were there black boxes in any of the vehicles?
- What caused the crash?
- Were you at fault in the crash?
- Did you collect evidence at the scene?
- What type of evidence did you collect?
- And have you seen a doctor?
If they believe you have a strong case, and you feel comfortable hiring them, the paperwork can be signed the same day so your attorney can begin to help with your accident claim.
Dedicated Attention to your Case
A personal injury lawyer will treat your case with passion and energy, regardless of the size and scope.
If they take your case, rest assured that it is important. Each PI attorney understands that your financial future and your recovery may depend upon the success of your case.
It is their goal to help you receive the maximum amount of compensation that you deserve, because of that fact, they are willing to take your case to trial if that is the best chance for success.
When you hire an attorney from our personal injury law firm, you can expect the following dedication to your case:

No Up-Front Fees
When you hire a personal injury attorney, they do not require an up-front fee for expert services.
They will begin work immediately after all paperwork is signed.
Your attorney will only be paid once you have received a settlement check from the negligent parties insurance company.
Your personal injury lawyer will receive a percentage of the settlement. The details of that settlement percentage will be discussed with you in detail before you sign the paperwork.
If the attorney you are speaking with is not forthright about the percentage they will take, you would be wise in moving on to another attorney.
