Questions
-
Do I Need To Hire A Personal Injury Lawyer?
Answer
The outcome of your case is heavily dependent upon the expertise of your lawyer. Having an experienced personal injury attorney on your side can ensure that your insurance company does not take advantage of your rights. We will conduct a comprehensive, in-depth investigation in our pursuit of maximizing your recovery.
-
The Insurance Company Said I Don’t Need To Hire A Lawyer. Is This True?
Answer
Unfortunately, insurance companies primarily focus on the bottom line. In addition, they do not take into consideration the long term effects of your injuries. The settlement they offer you will not cover all of the costs of your injuries. Speak with our trusted lawyer to establish your benefits and compensation.
-
What Is The Statute Of Limitations?
Answer
After being injured, we encourage you to take swift action in securing legal counsel. If you exceed the statute of limitations for filling your personal injury claim, you will likely not secure the settlement you deserve.
