Can a Non-Attorney or Non-Lawyer Handle a Car Accident Case?<\/h1>\n
\n

Many people believe that we live in a highly litigious society. While that may be true in some instances, lawyers and attorneys fulfil a very important role in our culture, society and community. A legal representative of the court has a specialized training in the law. This individual will work either alone or with a group of other specially trained attorney in a law<\/a> firm. When a lawyer works in a law firm, there is an opportunity to draw on the skills and resources of everyone working in the same firm. There are lawyers who work at firms who are able to be leaders in their industry, because of their integrity, specialized training and education in the law.<\/p>\n

Can I Represent Myself in Court?<\/span><\/p>\n

The answer is \u201cYes,\u201d you can represent yourself in a civil court case, but is that going to be to your greatest<\/span> advantage? Then, the answer will be a firm \u201cNo,\u201d you need an attorney for a significant case with a serious personal injury. If you are going to a small claims court to get a few thousand dollars back from an errant neighbor, or for minor damage to your car, then by all means, you can and should go to the small claims court alone. But any time that you have major personal injuries, major damage or losses to property or major losses otherwise, you do not want to \u201cwing it\u201d by not hiring an attorney to represent you at court.<\/p>\n

An Attorney Will Have Good Communication Skills, How Good Are You at Detailing the Law?<\/span><\/p>\n

When people think of attorneys, they think that they are talkative to a fault, always trying to make their point, and always dominating the conversation. This may apply to some people, but overall, attorneys are good listeners too. They are able to listen to the client\u2019s claim, determine the appropriate way to emerge successful for a case, and know how to communicate these skills to the client, the court, and to the other side. Just as people in sales are described as having \u201cthe gift of gab,\u201d attorneys are described as over talkers, but it is not so. They are focused listeners as well, and are able to quickly surmise how a client needs to win a case, based on the available evidence.<\/p>\n

Try as you may, without experience at trial, a law degree from a reputable law school, years of practice managing different types of client claims, and experience with settling big insurance company claims for serious personal injuries \u2013<\/a> you yourself in court are just not going to cut it as a non-lawyer trying to win a case. We are confident to tell you that you need an attorney on your side, and not just any old attorney either. You need a <\/span>highly experienced firm in the business, and we are here to tell you that we fit the bill in that arena.<\/span><\/p>\n

An Attorney Will Understand and Identify Complex Skills Related to Decision Making and Logical Thinking Ability<\/span><\/p>\n

Even when a case is \u201ccut and dried,\u201d meaning that it is supposed to be so obvious who is at fault, who is responsible for the loss, and who will have to pay the damages \u2013 something or actually everything can go South! Nothing is cut and dried in terms of settling a lawsuit<\/a>, as there are many moving parts, and too many factors to know what happens behind the scenes. That is, if you are NOT a lawyer. The Hollywood version of court, litigation, law firms and how cases are handled within the court system has skewed what really happens in the judge\u2019s chambers, at court and beyond in the mediation room. Hollywood is not reality, and does not resemble real life. We are here to tell you that you are highly likely to win your case, if you are dealing with an experienced attorney. You are equally as highly likely to not win your case, if you decide to go it alone and forgo hiring attorney you can find.<\/p><\/div>\n
