When to Hire a Car Accident Attorney?

find the best possible car accident lawyer

There is a Common Law adage,  “he who represents himself has a fool as a client.”  The common law legal system requires the handling of a case by expert and knowledgeable attorneys who know the legal system and understand how the law applied to the specific facts and evidence of the case.

Insurance Adjusters take advantage of non represented clients:

The job of insurance adjusters is to lower your right to compensation for your injuries and property damage.  Non-lawyers simply do not have the leverage to bargain with astute insurance companies determined to lower their liability.  Insurance companies find any reason they can to not pay the money they own on their policy.  Insurance companies understand that individuals can be intimidated by legal jargon and inability to understand the complexities of the law.

• Someone that you feel comfortable with. Can she explain things clearly? Did he answer all of your questions?
• Someone who cares. When you met, did you feel like just another prospect or was the lawyer genuinely interested in you and your case? Contrary to one of the popular lawyer joke themes, not all lawyers are simply mercenaries out to make a fee.
