Auto Accident Claims and the Law
Car accidents, motorcycle accidents and truck accidents are the most common type of personal injury claims. These claims are typically based on the theory of negligence. In most vehicle accidents, the injured party, the plaintiff, must establish the negligence of the defendant in order to seek damages. Furthermore, the plaintiff must show that the defendant’s negligence caused the accident and the injuries.
1000's of people are injured in accidents every day and many have serious injuries that deserve compensation. Insurance companies know this and they try to settle claims quickly for as little as possible. Understanding the value of your claim can help you avoid settling for too little. Legal representation is the best way to protect yourself.

How many different people will be handling my case? How many people will I have to speak to?
Depending on your personal preferences, you may feel that you only want to speak with one or two people, rather than speaking with a different staff person every time. Make sure to ask questions that will tell you if you are going to have the type of experience that is comfortable for you.

How much is my case worth?
While the attorney may have to collect more information, like wage information and medical bills, most attorneys can give you a range of what your case is worth or give you an idea of what other cases like yours have yielded in the past.
Have you handled other cases similar to my case?
Ask your attorney what other cases the firm has handled that are similar to your case. Make sure the attorney provides specific examples of cases and the types of results that he or she secured for the client. Past results are certainly not a guarantee that your case will result in the same award, but being aware of the types of cases the attorney has handled will give you a good idea of whether the attorney has the experience to get you a good result if your case warrants it.
How often should I receive updates about the progress of my case?
Personal injury cases often move slowly because of factors beyond the lawyer’s control. The speed at which a case moves often depends on the court system and how many cases are on the docket. That said, your attorney should provide you with an update on a fairly regular basis and let you know the next time he or she expects progress on your case. You should also feel comfortable asking your attorney for a reference from another client and ask that client, how good the attorney is at communicating.
How many verdicts have you obtained at trial and how many case have you settled?
If an attorney has been practicing for 15 years and has had only 2 trials but settled 100 cases, that may be an indication that the attorney doesn’t prepare cases for trial to maximize their value. A strong trail attorney who isn’t afraid to take the insurance company to the mat will likely add value to your case because the insurance company knows the attorney has a track record of taking cases to trial. In fact, any attorney with a strong trial record will often have a greater chance of settling a case for maximum value prior to trial since the insurance company may want to avoid the cost of trial and the risk of an unfavorable verdict against them.
