How to Deal With Your Personal
Injury Case?
Kanner & Pintaluga
Document Everything
A legal case is built on evidence, and in
a personal injury suit, that means
documentation. There are many ways to
document an injury. File a police report.
Take photographs. Talk to witnesses,
and make sure to get their names and
phone numbers so that you or your
lawyer can contact them later.
Don't Take any Money
An insurance company representative may
call you or come to your house, offering a
check for a nominal amount of money.
Your best course of action is to provide the
insurance company representative with
your lawyer's contact information, and have
him handle the offer.
Listen to Your Lawyer
Personal injury law is complex, and the
rules are very specific. You hired a
lawyer because he knows the rules and
you don't. You'll only have a successful
case if you listen to his advice. That
means showing up for any depositions
or insurance company medical exams
that your lawyer tells you that you need
to attend.
Be Careful about Your Words
At the scene of the accident, don't say
anything to the other party that sounds
like an admission of guilt. A simple
"I'm sorry" can come back to bite you
in court later on. You should also
avoid talking to the other party's
lawyer, investigators for the
defendant's lawyer, or insurance
company representatives or
investigators, unless your lawyer is
present.
Ask Your Lawyer
Do you have time for the case? Will you
deal with all the police work and other
aspects? How long have you been
dealing with personal injury cases? What
are the costs of services involved? Now,
these are some of the simplest things to
ask your lawyer.
