What Is a Personal Injury Lawyer Consultation?
A personal injury consultation is an initial meeting between an injury victim and a lawyer to discuss the details of the victim’s accident or injury. During this meeting, the attorney will evaluate the victim’s claim and determine whether they believe they can help, and the victim will evaluate whether they want the attorney to represent them.
At Rosen Injury Law, the consultation is free, and there is no obligation to hire us afterward. Most consultations last between thirty and sixty minutes, depending on the complexity of the case.
What Does A Fort Lauderdale Injury Lawyer Do During a Consultation?
During the consultation, your attorney’s main job is to listen. You will be asked to describe what happened – how you were injured, what medical treatment you have received, and how the injury is affecting your daily life. You simply need to tell your story.
Your attorney will follow up with additional questions to get a clearer picture and will assess the legal elements of your claim. They will consider whether another party was negligent, whether that negligence caused your injuries, and what your potential damages are.
In Florida, personal injury cases are affected by the modified comparative negligence rule, which means your compensation may be reduced if you are found to be partially at fault for your injuries. At Rosen Injury Law, our Fort Lauderdale injury law attorneys will help protect your rights and work to avoid or minimize any assignment of fault to you to help maximize your compensation.
By the end of your consultation, you should have a sense of whether you have a valid claim, what the legal process might look like, and whether you feel comfortable with this attorney. You should know that no attorney can promise you a specific outcome, and you should be cautious of any who do. You deserve an experienced Fort Lauderdale injury lawyer with a proven record of success to evaluate your claim and provide an honest, realistic assessment of your case.
How Can I Prepare For My Consultation With A Fort Lauderdale Injury Lawyer?
You do not need to have everything organized and figured out before your consultation. Your attorney will tell you what they need from you to move forward with your case. However, here are a few things you can do to help prepare for and make the most of your consultation:
- Bring any documentation of the accident that you have to your consultation, including any police reports, incident reports, photographs, video footage, or written accounts of what happened.
- Bring any medical records and bills for the treatment of your injuries.
- Gather any insurance information you may have, including any correspondence you have received from the at-fault party’s insurer. Tell the attorney if you have provided a recorded statement to the insurer.
- If you have the contact information of eyewitnesses, bring it to your consultation.
- Make a list of questions you want to ask your attorney.
What Questions Should I Ask During A Consultation With A Fort Lauderdale Injury Lawyer?
You should feel comfortable asking your Fort Lauderdale accident attorney any and all questions you have about your case. Some questions you should ask include:
- Do you believe I have a valid claim? What type of compensation could I recover?
- How do you handle cases like mine?
- How long do you think it will take for my case to be resolved?
- What are the possible outcomes?
- Who will be handling my case, and who will I be primarily working with?
- How does your fee structure work? At Rosen Injury Law, we handle your case on a contingency fee basis and pay all costs associated with pursuing your claim upfront. You pay nothing until we recover compensation for you.
No attorney can guarantee that you will recover a specific amount of compensation. However, once our Fort Lauderdale injury lawyers have carefully evaluated your claim, we will provide you with an estimate of what we believe would be a fair settlement of your case.
