| DO YOU NEED A LAWYER? If you are involved in a legal matter, such as an accident at work or in a car, or for that matter any type of accident, you may well have legal rights you are not aware of. There's an old saying, "you don't know what you don't know." WHAT DOES A LAWYER DO? A Lawyer's role in representing you as his client is to be your advocate-to fight for you and your rights. A lawyer's sworn duty is to zealously represent his client at all times. NOT ALL LAWYERS ARE THE SAME Some lawyers handle mostly car accident cases; other lawyers, accidents on the job; and still others mainly divorce or criminal cases. While it's true that none of us would call upon a dentist to treat a broken arm or an eye doctor to treat a heart problem, there are still many people who, after suffering serious injuries in an auto or work accident, call upon the lawyer who represented them when they bought a home, started a business, or got a traffic ticket. If you are seeking a divorce - see a divorce lawyer. If you are involved in a criminal matter - see a criminal lawyer. And if you're injured in an accident - see an attorney who concentrates on accident cases. |
SHOULD I HAVE AN ATTORNEY? If you suffer personal injuries as a result of an accident at work, a car accident, a fall in the streets or in a store, you should talk with a lawyer. Common types of accidents involving personal injury for which you should consult with a lawyer are: Most lawyers who handle accident cases handle them on a contingency basis, which means that the lawyer is only paid a fee if he is successful in recovering money damages for you. One of the more important reasons you should have a lawyer if you are involved in an accident is to level the playing field. Insurance companies worth many millions of dollars are the ones who pay almost all accident claims. The insurance companies have trained adjusters and experienced insurance company lawyers working for them. These adjusters and lawyers are very familiar with the laws regarding accident claims and their job is to protect the insurance company's money. Who will protect your interests and be your advocate? YOUR LAWYER. |
