Things to Look For in a Personal Injury Attorney
- Experience
- Medical expertise
- Personal attention
- Verdicts and settlements
Experience
Many kinds of accidents can result in personal injury, including:
- Assault
- Automobile, motorcycle, or truck accident
- Defective product
- Industrial injury
- Work accident
Due to the variety and unique nature of injury causes and effects, hiring a lawyer with extensive experience in a range of injury cases is essential to winning a case.
Medical Expertise
Since personal injury cases often deal with medical issues, a personal injury lawyer who has extensive medical knowledge, can mean the difference between winning and losing a case. Mr. Barszcz’ medical knowledge and civil trial experience over the past 24 years has resulted in multi-million dollar recoveries in accident and medical malpractice cases.
Personal Attention
In some large law firms, it’s easy for clients to “fall through the cracks” and not receive the personal attention they deserve. Many clients want a firm that is large enough to provide all of the resources necessary AND also devoted to making sure that you get the undivided attention you need. The complex nature of personal injury cases means that attention to detail is crucial to a successful outcome.
Verdicts and Settlements
Even given the above factors, how can you tell whether a lawyer will be successful in your case? Looking back at their record of winning verdicts and settlements in personal injury cases similar to yours should give you a sense of the capabilities of your lawyer or law firm. A lack of reasonable verdicts and settlements might indicate a firm that has a good advertising department, but falls short in winning cases for their clients.
