Why you Need a Personal Injury Lawyer

If you have been injured in an accident, you may need a personal injury attorney to help fight for your rights.

Dealing with the person who caused the accident

If someone did something reckless to cause an accident that injured you, they may be contrite and do everything they can to help you recover and be made whole. But many people don't do that, instead choosing to disavow responsibility. In that case, you will need a personal injury lawyer on your side to work out a settlement and go to court if necessary.

Dealing with an insurer

When you are injured in an accident, you expect the insurance company representing the responsible party, whether that's you or someone else, to pay up. But that often doesn't happen. Insurance companies are notorious for delaying claims. low-balling claims payouts and trying to find loopholes to get out of paying claims altogether. With a personal injury attorney on your side, that won't happen, because your attorney will know all the tricks of the trade and how to deal with them.

Dealing with an employer

If your injury was caused at work, your employer may do everything he can to try to minimize his responsibility. If you have a legitimate work injury, your employer can be on the hook to pay you lost wage and his insurance costs may go up because of it, so he may try to fight the claim. Having an experienced personal injury attorney on your side will ensure you get all the benefits to which you are entitled.
