How do you determine if you need a lawyer or not in an accident case? -

I got rear ended in a car accident and I don t know if I should get a lawyer or not. How do I decide?

I think you do or you d already know what to do. Go here http://legal.solutionsarticles.com/easie... let them know what happened and if they get back to you then yeah you need a lawyer.

Whoa.Are you serious? You always need a lawyer in any automobile accidents. To be perfectly honest, an accident attorney should be contacting you soon.Especially if the police was at the scene.A record of the incident is on file.Do you have insurance?Have you went to the ER?Going to the ER will help your case tremendously.Never second guess this again. YOU ALWAYS NEED A LAWYER WHEN YOU RE A VICTIM.

Although there are a lot of people who will tell you to get one to be on the safe side (of course a lot of those people are out for a quick buck). I ve been involved in a couple of incidents involving traffic accidents. In the first one I was rear-ended. I didn t hire a lawyer because frankly the car was totaled but it was old so that wasn t much of an issue. I wasn t injured at all - and didn t want to join the crowd of people who get one in order to milk the system. In the other accident. I was broadsided. The car was totaled and I was injured. This time I did get a lawyer and it was completely worth it. Aside from getting my own insurance company to payoff the car, they eventually settled with the other insurance company to pay for my medical expenses. That said, the entire experience was not fun and the amount that I received did little more than help me catch up on bills that I hadn t paid because I was out of work. With these incidents in mind. Aside from whether or not you re injured (which it sounds like you re not), a lot of it depends on how you feel about how the insurance companies are dealing with you. Although your ins. company is supposed to be working in your favor, remember they re prime motivator is to pay out as little in claims as possible. And the same is true of the other motorist s ins. co. The jest is, if you think something isn t right then you might want to at least set up a consult. Most will give you an initial meeting free of charge.

It s unfortunate to hear about your situation. I was injured once in Nebraska when a delivery truck backed over my left foot at work. My company tried to settle with me fast because I knew they were try to get me to sign some papers to release them from responsibility. I called a nearby lawyer in my area who gave me useful advice and I was able to get a justifiable settlement to cover my medical bills that weren t covered by my primary insurance. I d find a personal injury in your city. http://www.accidentlawyerlocator.com My personal injury lawyer was help me because they expect to make some money at the same time. Try visiting a injury lawyer to see if they can help. Heop everything works out.

Were you injured? Did you recieve any medical care due to the accident? Will you need medical treatment in the future from it? Is your car damaged or totalled? Are you going to have to pay out of pocket for car repairs? If yes to any of those questions, get an attorney.

The only reason you would need a lawyer would be if you were hoping to hit the jackpot with an injury case, and nowadays you have to be pretty seriously injured to cash in.

i got rear ended and lost a lot of money and got bad whip lash for the rest of my life . consalt a lawyer aneyway it would be better in the long run
