If so, we invite you to keep reading to get the basic information you should consider. Then contact The Law Offices of Larry H. Parker to request a free legal consultation.

Know What to Avoid

Before we talk about what you should look for in a pedestrian accident attorney, it is important for you to know what should be avoided. Some of the most common complaints amongst people who did not like their experience with an attorney are that the attorney pressured them to settle for too little, that their attorney was difficult to get in touch with, or that the attorney seemed to be taking too much time.

Choose an Attorney Who Has Worked on Pedestrian Accidents Before

This might sound obvious, but many people assume that a personal injury attorney can handle any type of case. This is not necessarily true. Some take on any injury case, but at firms like The Law Offices of Larry H. Parker, we specialize in a few key areas to ensure we can provide the best possible outcome for each client.

When you are considering an attorney, ask them what they specialize in. Ask them how many pedestrian accidents they have taken on. Even if they say they have handled thousands of car accident cases, that does not necessarily mean they will have the resources and experience to handle pedestrian accidents.

Make Sure They Have the Resources

Sometimes, a person who has been injured in an accident will assume that going with a one-person law firm will be the best option because they will get one-on-one attention. This is a false premise. The truth is that when you choose a larger firm, you can feel confident that they have the resources necessary to take your case all the way to the end.

Consider Their Level of Success

Any attorney you hire should be clear about their background and their success statistics. For example, when you learn about the Law Offices of Larry H. Parker, you will quickly discover that we have a 95% success rate. While there is never a guarantee in the world of law, this is a statistic that you should feel confident with. We do not suggest working with a law firm that will not release this number to you.

Insist on a Free Consultation

A free consultation offers an attorney the chance to determine if they should take your case and it offers you the chance to determine if they are the right attorney. There should not be a charge for this initial consultation. To request your own, you can contact The Law Offices of Larry H. Parker at 800-333-0000 right away.
