Securing fair compensation after an accident can be challenging. Your best chance of success of maximizing the amount you receive would be to hire an experienced personal injury lawyer. With so many options out there, you may be wondering which lawyer is the best equipped to handle your case. To determine this, there are several questions you can ask.
Personal injury is a huge umbrella term covering many different kinds of accidents. From motor accidents to workplace injuries, you may not want to hire a lawyer who specializes in cases different from yours. At Corradino & Papa, LLC, we have lawyers who specialize in a wide range of cases from workers’ compensation cases to product liability. Regardless of the facts surrounding your case, we will match you to a lawyer most suitably equipped to assist you.
Often, victims wish to settle their case as quickly as possible. After all, you have a life to return to. That’s why it is important for your lawyer to be completely transparent about how long they expect your case will take to resolve. There are several factors that can influence this but your lawyer should be able to give you a rough estimate based on the facts of your case and previous cases they have handled. You should also make sure they are committed to resolving your case as soon as possible.
Although an out-of-court settlement is always the best case scenario, sometimes a trial can be necessary to ensure you get the fairest settlement. Always ask your lawyer if they are preparing your case to go to trial. Even if seems unnecessary or unlikely in the moment, your lawyer should always prepare your case for the possibility of a trial. This way, you can ensure you are armed with as much evidence as possible to ensure a fair settlement. And in the case that a settlement is not possible, your lawyer should be prepared to defend your case in court.
Lawyers with extensive experience handling similar cases should be able to give you a good estimate of how much your case is worth. At the very least, you should be given a spectrum of ballpark figures after taking into account factors such as established liability, preexisting medical conditions and more. Follow this up with some research of your own to determine if the quoted figure is realistic.
