What Questions Should You Ask in Your Initial Consultation?

Hiring a personal injury lawyer you trust is critical to the success of your case. During your initial consultation, you should not only provide them with a complete and honest outline of your situation, but you should also aim to learn more about them and their practice. To this end, you may wish to ask questions such as:

  • What experience do you have with cases like mine? What were their outcomes?
  • What is the usual range for settlements for a case like mine?
  • How long might it take for my case to reach a resolution?
  • Is my case likely to go to trial?
  • How are your fees structured?
  • What legal expenses would I be responsible for?
  • How does your law office communicate with clients?
  • What is your opinion of my case?

What is Pure Comparative Fault and How Can It Affect Your Personal Injury Claim?

Washington is one of 13 states that use the pure comparative fault rule in personal injury cases. Under this rule, accident victims can seek compensation from the other party for their injuries as long as they are not 100% responsible for the accident. The overall compensation the victim receives will be reduced by the amount of fault assigned to them.

Insurance companies will frequently try to claim that you share a higher percentage of fault for your accident to decrease the amount of your settlement offer. An experienced personal injury attorney can help you fight back against these accusations and get full compensation.

What Are the Phases of a Personal Injury Case?

As an accident victim with bills to pay, you may be anxiously awaiting a conclusion to your personal injury claim. Your lawyer should frequently communicate about how your case is progressing. Some of the basic steps involved in a case include:

  • Information gathering: Your lawyer will perform an investigation and collect all the facts necessary to create a well-informed settlement demand. Usually, a settlement demand is made after the injured client has healed or stabilized in terms of their injuries and treatment.
  • Negotiation process: Some cases may be settled with the insurance company in a few months, while others can last for years. In most cases, the negotiation is successful, and the process ends here.
  • Going to trial: If both sides are unable to come to an agreement, a lawsuit will be filed. Your trial begins on the date set by the court. This phase can often last the longest, sometimes taking a year or more. When the trial is over, a verdict will be handed down.
