Frequently Asked Questions
In many situations, we will file a workers compensation case and open a claim to get benefits. However, there are certain situations when a third party is responsible or partially at fault for your injuries, such as construction work accidents, you were exposed to a toxic substance, malice was involved, or defective product caused the injury. In these cases, and many more, we should discuss pursing a third party claim in addition to the workers compensation you will be receiving for medical expenses and lost wages.
No, not only is the consultation free but you do not have to pay for our legal services for the duration of your personal injury case. Your retainer will include what is called a contingency agreement. We are only paid when you settle your case. A percentage of your settlement will be set aside to pay for your legal fee. The percentage ranges from 15% to 33% of the total settlement depending on the type of your case. If for some reason you do not recover on a settlement, you do not have to pay a legal fee.

Find out if you Qualify!
Should I accept the insurance company’s offer? Not without first having a personal injury attorney review the offer. The insurance will try to pay you as little as possible, so you’ll want to be sure that all of your current and future expenses and losses are accounted for in the settlement offer.
Can my personal injury claim settle out of court? Whether court becomes necessary to settle your personal injury claim depends entirely on the other side’s willingness to take your claim seriously and make a fair settlement offer. A trial will only be needed if full compensation cannot be reached through out-of-court negotiations.

First Step After An Accident
We find that our clients major concern after an accident is their car was just totaled and they have no way to get around. We work with your insurance company if you have a car rental policy on your insurance policy. Not to worry even if you do not have a car rental policy, we will make a demand to the other driver's car insurance to provide you with a car rental until you get your car repaired or until you purchase your car within a reasonable time.
Get Medical Attention
Go the nearest emergency room. It is important to report the hospital or urgent care and tell them about ALL of your injuries. When you start your medical treatment, it is important to keep your appointments such as the physical therapy and MRIs. Keep in mind that you will need to get an out-of-work note if you are temporarily unable to return to your job. With the out-of-work note, you will be able to make a wage replacement claim and apply for disability benefits.
Your Auto Insurance
Now is the time to look at you car's insurance policy. Make sure you have "good" Underinsurance limits. If the other driver's car insurance is not sufficient to cover you injuries, you will have to rely on your Underinsurance limits. What are "good" limits? You could have up to a million dollars, $500,000 or even $100,000. The cost to purchase these limits are not expensive.
