What are the Benefits of Hiring a Personal Injury Attorney?
Updated: Jan 18
You got into an accident, now you are trying to recover from your injuries and return to normal life but your neck and back are killing you. You're on the phone with the insurance companies constantly. Medical bills are piling up. Your finances are being drained because you’re unable to work. Your life and your well being are spiraling out of control. You wonder what you can do to get back on your feet again. Many people try to handle their injury claim themselves without realizing the power of an attorney. The personal injury attorneys at State Law Firm are on your side.
A personal injury attorney knows the value of your claim.
The average person doesn't have a firm idea of how much money they could get through a personal injury claim. Your attorney will: analyze your injuries, assess your pain and suffering, factor in the insurance company's strategy, estimate future medical needs after a consultation with a medical professional.
Attorneys understand the legal process. If you've been in a car accident and attempt to handle the insurance company on your own, there is a good chance you could miss out on thousands of dollars from your insurance settlement.
Your attorney is motivated to assist you.
Attorneys that work on a contingency basis meaning that they only get paid if your case settles. This motivates your lawyer to fight for the HIGHEST settlement possible. On top of that your attorney will be more likely to settle your claim quickly.
Your attorney isn't afraid of trial.
If all attempts at settlement fail, it is comforting knowing that your attorney will not back down and would file a lawsuit. Having an attorney represent you in court- or even the threat of it- shows insurance companies that you are serious. In turn, they may be more motivated to make an earlier and more equitable settlement offer for your personal injury claim.
