Putting the "Personal" in Personal Injury Lawyer is Important

We treat our clients and staff like family and offer a more holistic approach than many attorneys. Compassion is a big part of the process when trying to recover for a client in a serious injury case, and our team is careful to practice that compassion every day with every client. We all understand how essential it is to be kind during this process.

Wrongful Death Cases are Easier with an Advocate

When an accident causes a fatal injury to a loved one, the people left behind can feel lost, confused, and overwhelmed with the decisions they must make and the life that is forever changed. Trying to recover damages during the grieving process can add stress and difficulty to a delicate situation. We have worked with many families who have lost a loved one to an accident and are here to help. We will handle your case to focus on what you need to do, which can help you begin to heal and recover both financially and personally.

We Take Cases on Contingency

People who have been seriously injured need quality legal representation, but not all can afford legal fees upfront. That's why we work on a contingency fee basis. We only collect fees if we resolve your case, which comes from the settlement you receive. You will never be asked to pay anything upfront, and if your case is not resolved successfully, you won't be asked to pay us.

Selecting the Right Gridley Personal Attorney for Your Needs

You can find attorneys advertising their services just about anywhere. Billboards help accident victims, internet ads say the same, and TV commercials show plenty of attorneys in your area with time on their hands, just waiting to help you. Unfortunately, these big promises are often not kept as many injured individuals hope. It is easy to make a commercial with grand promises and high success rates, but many attorneys aren't prepared to do everything it takes to ensure you get total compensation for your or a loved one's injuries.

Remember that a high success rate could mean a lot of settlements, and those settlements are often for a lot less than the client should have received. Unless our client receives enough to fully recover from their injuries, we don't count the case as a success, and that recovery includes the physical, financial, and emotional aspects.

Are we the right attorney for you? Maybe not, but no matter who you select to represent you, it's a good idea to know what to look for when choosing a Gridley personal injury lawyer. Here are some of the most critical considerations: find an attorney who matches your case and your specific needs well.

  • Make Sure You Know the Attorney's Experience Personal injury law can be complicated, and you want your attorney to have experience handling cases like yours. If they don't, they may not be suitable for you. Any attorney you pick should also have experience arguing cases in court if your particular situation results in a trial where this will be necessary.
  • Understand the Lawyer's Settlements and Verdicts - Attorneys generally make their verdicts and settlements available on their website, so potential clients can see how the attorney has helped past clients. If you can't find that particular information for an attorney you're considering, ask them about their successes, and most are happy to talk about how they have helped people.
  • Read Reviews of Lawyers You're Considering - While not all reviews are accurate, reading reviews about an attorney can help you decide if they might be right for you. You must locate an injury lawyer with good reviews to get the quality representation you deserve.
  • Determine Whether an Attorney is Established - Any attorney you choose should be well established and have the financial means to take on your case. It can be costly to pursue a personal injury case, especially if it goes to trial, and you need to know your attorney truly has the resources to help you.
