5 Reasons to Hire a Personal Injury Attorney if You Are Injured

If you have been injured due to another party acting negligently or recklessly, why should you suffer the financial consequences? At The Law Offices of Larry H. Parker we don’t believe you should have to and the law is on our side. Keep reading to find out five of the main reasons to hire a personal injury attorney instead of trying to handle the case on your own.

  1. You’re Able to Focus on Healing
  2. When you hire an attorney, they will handle all communications with the insurance company. This gives you the peace of mind you need to focus on what really matters: Healing. Trying to take the case on by yourself is time consuming and stressful. Do you want to take daily phone calls from an insurance adjuster? Do you want to go over complicated medical records, legal documents, and deal with insurance adjusters? We suggest you hire an attorney and focus your attention on healing.

  3. An Attorney Offers Expertise, Resources, and Knowledge
  4. If you hire an experienced attorney, they will bring the experience needed to provide the best possible legal representation. At The Law Offices of Larry H. Parker we have access to resources that you do not, such as expert witnesses. We have the staff required to make phone calls, gain access to records, contact all witnesses, and handle the ins and outs of your case. We also have the knowledge of which medical providers offer the best services. In short, we bring you expertise that can help your case tremendously.

  5. We Are Expert Negotiators
  6. You may have experience negotiating a salary or for the best price on a car. This is not the same skill set needed to negotiate for a fair settlement. In the event that the insurance company is not willing to agree to a fair settlement, we can help you decide if it is worth it to take your case to court.

  7. We Cover the Costs Upfront
  8. Many people have no idea how much it can cost to bring a personal injury case. There are expert witnesses to hire. There are court costs. Then there is the cost of getting copies of records, hiring an investigator, getting medical experts – the list goes on and on. If you have an attorney then they will take care of these costs for you.

  9. You Don’t Pay Until the Case is Settled
  10. One of the top reasons people give for not being able to afford hiring an attorney is that they believe they do not have the funds to do so. The truth is that you do not have to pay until we have settled your case. If it must be taken to court, you do not pay until the jury awards in your favor. If we do not win your case then you do not pay. In short, there is no risk at all. Contact an attorney now for a free initial consultation.
