Choosing a Lawyer

The attorney must have the background and experience to represent you in your particular kind of case, whether it be a motor vehicle accident, construction accident, trip and fall, injuries suffered by excessive force or wrongful arrest or imprisonment, injury from a defective product, nursing home negligence, bicycle accident, or an animal bite. Further, the attorney must be dedicated, experienced and knowledgeable, and he or she must truly care about the clients they serve. An attorney representing the injured, or those who are tragically killed in a construction accident or motor vehicle crash must understand more than the law. The lawyer must have knowledge of the human anatomy, the effect of physical, emotional and psychological injuries on their clients, the progression of emotional or physical injuries and whether injuries are permanent or temporary.

An attorney must be able to understand how the injuries have adversely affected the life of the client and the lives of the clients’loved ones. They need to be fully familiar with any unusual or special problems that may prevent a complete recovery. The attorney must be able to seek the opinions of independent expert board certified medical consultants, and numerous other experts such as life care planners, economists, engineers and financial experts, and litigate, if necessary, to obtain the maximum possible resolution of your case by way of settlement, mediation, arbitration or trial.

Insurance companies and uninsured defendants can easily determine through an internet search whether an attorney or law firm has a background in litigating cases to trial. It is vital that should the insurance company make an inadequate offer to resolve your car accident, motorcycle accident, construction accident, premises liability (for example slip and fall on ice, or trip and fall on uneven/defective stairs), police excessive force, dog bite, or nursing home abuse case, for example, that they are well aware that the case will be litigated at trial or alternative dispute resolution by a knowledgeable, experienced lawyer.
