About Me

When Life Gives You Lemons — Call an Attorney

My parents raised me to be a strong person, regardless of what life throws at me. As an adult, I try to remember that upbringing, especially when things happen to me I can't control. A year ago, I faced one of the toughest times of my life. Someone close to me broke into my home and stole everything I worked hard for. Devastated and angry, I contact an attorney for advice. I didn't have physical proof that is was my "friend" who did that to me. I only had verbal evidence to go by. The person who violated my trust bragged about the crime to people we both know. I couldn't convince those witnesses to help me with my case, but the attorney could. If you face a problem like mine, contact an attorney for assistance. My blog teaches you how to do so without fear or frustration.

How You Can Help Your Personal Injury Attorney Succeed With Your Case

You want your personal injury attorney to succeed with your case because that means that you win. While you have retained an attorney to do a lot of work on the case for you, there are some things that you can do in order to make their job a little easier. The easier it is for them to represent you in court, the easier it should be for you to win your case. Here are a few helpful things that you can do:

Gather Up The Contact Information For All Places Where You've Received Medical Care

It is important that you make a list that has the contact information for any hospital, doctor's office, specialist, therapist, chiropractor, or urgent care center that has treated you for injuries related to the accident that you were in. If you are able to provide the dates when you were seen at each place, that would be a bonus, but don't worry if you can't remember immediately. Your attorney can get ahold of each medical provider and get your records related to the accident. The more proof of the extent of your injuries your attorney can show, the easier it will be to win your case.

Return Phone Calls Immediately

Even if you think that you have given your attorney all there is to give in terms of evidence, you still need to make sure that you are returning his or her phone calls as soon as possible. After all, there could be a new factor to discuss, such as a settlement offer that was sent by the attorney representing the defendant. Your attorney will need to discuss the amount of the settlement offer with you before he or she can accept it. In some cases, the offer is only available for a short amount of time before the offer is retracted. Therefore, if you have missed a call from your personal injury attorney, you will want to make it a point to get back in touch with them right away.

If you do not already have a personal injury attorney handling your case, now is the time to find one. Reach out to a law firm like that of Adams Jordan & Herrington PC for more information.  When you do find a good attorney for your case, go ahead and ask what else you can do to make it easier for them to represent you in your personal injury case.
