If you or a loved one were injured due to someone else’s negligence, you may be able to collect compensation for your injuries. The first step to financial recovery is meeting with an attorney to discuss your case and learn your legal options. If you’ve never worked with an attorney before, you may be unsure where to find one. Here are four tips to finding the right attorney for you:
- Attorneys can be generalists or specialize in a particular area of law. An attorney who is a generalist provides legal counsel on a wide variety of topics that range from business law, to criminal law, to personal injury law, just to name a few. Other attorneys specialize in one or a select few fields of law and only take cases that deal with that specialty. The type of attorney that helps injury victims secure compensation for their injuries is a personal injury attorney.
- To start your search for a personal injury attorney, ask friends, family, or co-workers if they have worked with one that they recommend. You can also search online for names through reputable sites, such as the Florida Bar Association, Avvo.com, or Martindale.com.
- After you have a few names, check out their websites and set up an appointment to learn more about them. Some important topics to discuss are:
- Depending on the specifics of your case, you may be working with you attorney for several months, or even years, so it’s important that you feel comfortable with them. Do they seem like someone you could trust? Do you have a rapport with them? Are their office staff friendly and welcoming?
- How long have they been practicing?
- What is their success rate?
- Have they worked on cases similar to yours?
- If necessary, do they have in-house experience to litigate your case (present your case in front of a judge and/or jury in a courtroom)?
- How does their fee structure work and what is the process for expenses?
- Do they think you have a case?
- How much do they think your case is worth (they will likely give you a range rather than a specific dollar figure)?
