How to Spot a Personal Injury Case

1. Damages —What’s the severity of the injury? The greater the impact of the injury on a person's life, the greater the case value. And the greater the value, the more likely it is that that person would benefit from the help of a personal injury attorney. Also, the greater the value, the greater the referral fee when the case settles. 2. Liability — Did someone else’s bad conduct cause these injuries? Be on the lookout to ensure the conduct that caused the injury was negligent or worse. Without liability, the case has no value. Keep in mind that the more offensive the conduct, the greater the value in the case. 3. Collectability —Who is the person or company responsible for the bad conduct? Without recoverability, the client isn't going to be able to receive any compensation or justice for the injury that has befallen them. An attorney should be asking about insurance information of the liable party or what the client knows about the liable party. Each of these factors is essential in evaluating a personal injury claim. An attorney who has their ears open for these factors and refers viable cases to an experienced personal injury attorney can get some justice for that client and a referral fee themselves.

the springtime, she had them learn about plants by planting little seeds by themselves.

The kids are absolutely thriving. Finn once again loves school, and it's crazy how far along he is now. Nicole has given him the freedom to learn at his own pace, feel supported, and explore topics that interest him. We are incredibly lucky to be able to give our kids this experience. One of the best parts about home schooling, for us, is the flexibility. It allows us to create a life and schedule that works best for our family. For this upcoming year, we are very excited to be able to travel outside of peak seasons like Christmas break and spring break! We are also looking forward to getting our kids involved in charity work in our community. In August, Finn will be starting kindergarten and Harlow will be starting preschool in our "school house." We are still only planning one year at a time and allowing life to unfold organically as our children grow and change.

Many attorneys miss out on an incredible opportunity to help people and make money for themselves by shutting down when a client calls them and talks about the injuries they received. If you aren’t a personal injury attorney, these kinds of calls might seem like a frustrating waste of time. But in reality, when a client calls an attorney looking for a referral, it is a tremendous compliment. These kinds of calls show that the attorney has won the trust of another human through competent work and honesty. No matter your field of practice, attorneys should properly respect this compliment and hear the client's story to learn what’s troubling them and how best to address the issues.

I saw firsthand what makes her such a great teacher when Nicole started home- schooling our son.
