Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle

You may need the services of an injury lawyer when you've been injured, whether caused by a negligent driver, a physician misdiagnosed, or other injuries due to carelessness. Accidents can result in medical billslost wages, and other expenses.

How to Find the Best Yreka Personal Injury Lawyer

One question that comes up when an injured person requires the services of a personal injury attorney is what to look for in a lawyer. The most important advice we can give you would be to seek a lawyer who only works with personal injury cases. Laws regarding personal injury can be complicated, and an attorney who works in other areas might not be the best choice for your accident injury. Ensure the law firm can cover accident reconstruction consults, expert witnesses, and other expenses that might be important to present your case in court.

Since personal injury cases are billed contingently, you don't pay unless you win. This is vital. Ask about the attorney's settlements and verdicts. Does the attorney generally settle with the insurance company? This can mean the lawyer does not like to take cases to trial and is willing to pay for a smaller amount than you are entitled to. Does the attorney have several practical recommendations from satisfied clients? If the attorney doesn't, there may be a reason for that.
