We understand it can be intimidating to meet with an attorney. You may even consider completing the process on your own. However, filing a personal injury claim isn’t easy when you try to do it alone. Not only can an attorney make the process simpler, but they can also give you a greater chance of winning your case. Before you hire any attorney, you should always receive a free consultation. To make the most of your time, discover what you need to do to illustrate your circumstances clearly. Explain the accident and injury in detail. At your free consultation, most of your time will be spent detailing the cause and severity of your injury. When doing so, you’ll need to be incredibly concise. Supply all the information you can about what happened and how the injury has affected your life. The attorney will likely ask you various questions at this time to get a better understanding of your history. Just as you wouldn’t lie to your doctor, you should never be dishonest or leave out any facts with your attorney. WHAT SHOULD I KNOW BEFORE A FREE CONSULTATION?
Provide the necessary documentation. To better display your case, you’ll want to provide all the records that apply to your injury. There’s no such thing as too much evidence, so bring as much documentation as possible. This can include:
• • • • • • •
Photos of the accident or injury
Medical records
Pay stubs or W-2s to determine lost wages
Police reports
Correspondence with the insurance company
Contact information of witnesses Any expenses caused by injuries
Discuss the viability of your case. After you’ve given your account, the attorney will determine whether your case has a chance of succeeding. It’s best to know earlier than later that your case may not be strong enough to receive compensation. However, if this happens, you can always get a second opinion from a different attorney. Before hiring any attorney, you should always ask them questions about their experiences and previous cases. If you feel they’re a good match for your case, you can discuss the next steps. There’s no reason ever to feel discouraged about attending a free consultation.
