Questions to ask when hiring a personal injury lawyer near Collegeville PA

If you have been injured in a car accident or as a result of someone else's carelessness, you may be searching
for a personal injury lawyer. There are many accident attorneys listed online near Phoenixville, Collegeville and Pottstown.
But, you want to make sure you get the right lawyer for you and your case. How do you do that?

A good way is to look at the lawyer's biography on their website. Then, contact them and really ask them questions.


These questions should include:

1. Does the lawyer focus or concentrate in Personal Injury Cases? (as opposing to just saying he or she handles them
but meanwhile they are really focused on other areas of law). The insurance company's lawyers concentrate in personal
injury. You want to choose a lawyer who is ready to handle the insurance company's tactics and is current on this specialized
area of law. An attorney who just dabbles in this area, may not be a match for the insurance lawyers.

2. How experienced is the lawyer pursuing cases against this insurance company that you are dealing with? Ask the lawyer if he or
she knows how this insurance company defends claims like yours.

3. Ask the personal injury lawyer you've contacted whether they're experienced litigating cases similar to yours and if so, how many against this insurance company you are dealing with? The correct lawyer you choose should have already dealt with this insurance company's lawyers before, have a track record with them and know what tactics they employ. For example, experienced injury lawyers will have gone up against the doctors hired by this company and will have experience in court against them.

4. Does the lawyer have experience actually handling personal injury cases similar to yours all the way through jury trials? That is important experience which the lawyer should put to work for you in your case. The goal is to resolve your case without trial but be fully ready to go all the way when necessary. This includes all aspects of court litigation including the use of expert witnesses, trial motions and experience with the Court where your case would need to be filed.

5. Does the lawyer have any career experience defending claims? A lawyer has previously worked on the defense side will have unique insight and knowledge into the way the company opposing your claim thinks and defends cases.
