When you are injured, the last thing you want to do is spend hours upon hours searching for an experienced personal injury attorney. After hours of scouring the Internet, you come up empty handed, or worse, stuck with incompetent counsel. Follow these simple tips to finding the best personal injury attorney for your case.
Ask a Friend
Unfortunately, personal injury claims are common. Asking friends or family if they know of a personal injury attorney is a great place to start. An experienced attorney will have a good reputation in the community. Make sure when you get a referral to still follow the next two steps.
Research Smart Online
There are a lot of review sites that you can use to get a sense of how the attorney runs their practice. The Internet can be a very useful place, but remember to take reviews with a grain of salt. A lot of people are more likely to write a bad review than a positive one. But if you start seeing a pattern of bad reviews then you should take caution.
Schedule a Consultation
Pick a few attorneys that you have found that you think may be a good fit for your case and schedule a consultation. This is your chance to interview your potential attorney for the job. Write down the facts of your case, bring pertinent documents, and write down questions to ask. Consultations will last from 30 minutes to an hour. Make sure that you feel comfortable talking to them about your case; this attorney will be working to get you what you are entitled to. They should listen intently to your situation and provide solutions on how to move forward to get you the compensation you deserve.
