Frequently asked questions:

What is the legal process for pursuing a personal injury claim?

If you have decided to pursue a personal injury claim, you likely have a few concerns regarding the process and what to expect. Here is a general overview of the steps we take following a client reaching out to us:

Initial Consultation: During this meeting, the lawyer will assess the details of your case and determine if you have a valid claim.
Investigation: This may involve gathering evidence, such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements.
Demand Letter: Your lawyer may send a demand letter to the responsible party or their insurance company, outlining your claim, the damages you’re seeking, and the basis for your claim.
Negotiation: Negotiations often follow, where your lawyer and the opposing party work to reach a settlement. This can involve back-and-forth communication and may result in an agreement without going to court.
Filing a Lawsuit: If a settlement cannot be reached, your lawyer may file a lawsuit on your behalf. This initiates the formal legal process.

If you’re case proceeds to court, we will continue to provide the utmost dedication to your well-being and attention to detail as it relates to your claim. In many cases, personal injury claims can be resolved through negotiation.

How long do personal injury cases typically take?

The timeline for personal injury cases can be uncertain, as every journey is unique. Simple cases may resolve quickly within a few months, while more complex ones may take longer, up to a year or more. No matter the length of your case, please understand that we’re dedicated to guiding you with empathy every step of the way.

How do I know if I have a strong personal injury case?

Determining the viability of your case rests on various considerations, such as:

Liability: Understanding the impact of the harm and who is responsible.
Injuries: Recognizing the emotional and physical toll your injuries have taken.
Evidence: Acknowledging the importance of strong evidence supporting your claim.
Causation: Establishing the link between the actions of the responsible party and your suffering.
Insurance: Evaluating whether there’s sufficient insurance coverage to provide the support you need.

Your pain is deeply understood, and we encourage you to reach out for a comprehensive consultation with our firm to fully assess your case. We’re here to support you through this journey with understanding and care.
