4 Reasons You Need to Hire a Serious Injury Attorney

(Newswire.net — February 27, 2017) Philadelphia, PA — The complex systems that allow Philadelphians to get to work, conduct business, and interact with one another must be well maintained. Philadelphia in recent years has experienced everything from building collapses to unsafe sidewalks, leaving dangerous obstacle courses for our citizens to navigate. The simple acts of crossing streets, catching a train, or climbing stairs become fraught with danger when city streets, sidewalks, train platforms and stairways are neglected. When you or a loved one is seriously injured due to someone else’s negligence or illegal acts, you need a serious injury lawyer to defend your rights and recover compensation. Four reasons to hire an attorney are insurance companies, case complexity, settlements and the trial itself.

Many accidents in and around Philadelphia’s streets often go unreported and unnoticed. A commuter slips on a train platform while trying to catch a train. An unsuspecting shopper is caught in a building collapse. Whether from improper inspection or a lack of maintenance and cleaning, these treacherous spots become tiny stages for painful accidents. A serious injury lawyer can restore your dignity, find the responsible parties, and compel them to pay for the serious injuries their actions (or inactions) cause. 

Insurance Companies

Insurance companies intend to settle claims quickly, as cheaply as possible, and without regard to a claimant’s needs. They are acting to protect their investments, not pay out as much as possible.

Case Complexity

Do you know how to file court papers? Have you ever interviewed witnesses, gathered evidence, investigated an accident, or worked with law enforcement to get records? A serious injury lawyer has the support of private investigators and other personnel familiar with the entire process. Your case could be far more complicated than you realize.

Optimal Settlement

Even if your case never makes its way into court, your serious injury lawyer can help you settle your case with the opposition under the best circumstances. You can get fair compensation for the pain, suffering, lost wages and medical expenses you faced and may face for the rest of your life.

Trial

A courtroom trial is not the stuff of dramatic television shows. Your attorney must know the law, think on his or her feet, and present a compelling case to either a judge or jury. Your financial future and health are at stake every minute in the courtroom. You need the experience and knowledge only a serious injury attorney can bring to your case.
