Your Personal Injury Consultation
For many of our personal injury clients, this is their first foray into the legal system. The following information is intended to help with what to expect after you contact us regarding your case.
After submitting your information through our simple and secure online form, one of our attorneys will try to answer any questions you may have. Please realize, however, that determining whether you have a case is rarely an easy question to answer without a thorough review of the facts.
After a follow-up telephone conversation, the next step will be to arrange a meeting between you and our attorney. The meeting may take place at our attorney's office, at your home, or at the hospital.
The meeting will not only serve for our attorney to collect as much information about your case from you as possible, but for you to ask questions about the legal aspects of your case. It should also serve for you and ask questions about, and to evaluate, the attorney's service.
We understand that you may not be able to provide documentation, but any you can collect or obtain prior to your meeting will help expedite any ensuing preliminary investigation. If you are not sure about whether any documentation is relevant, err on the side of bringing it. There is no need to make copies - our attorneys will be happy to make copies of any original documentation.
Documents that pertain to your case may include:
- Medical records
- Medical bills
- Prescriptions
- Health care provider identifying information
- Insurance claim letters and forms
- Name and contact information of any witnesses
- Accident reports
- Photographs
It may also help your case if you write down anything you can remember about what happened, including any circumstances surrounding your case. Even apparently insignificant details may prove to be instrumental later on. The sooner you do this, the fresher your recollection will be.
Be assured that our personal injury attorneys are qualified, experienced professionals who will examine your case carefully, protect your legal rights, and maximize any compensation you may be entitled to. You should be aware, however, that for many types of personal injury cases in most jurisdictions there is a statute of limitations, or deadline by which you must file a claim. The sooner you contact us, the sooner our attorneys can begin investigating your case and take the necessary steps to preserve any relevant evidence.
