Have you been injured in an auto accident or other type of accident? If you are feeling overwhelmed in the aftermath of your accident, or you are wondering what to do next, it is important to know you are not alone. Personal injuries come out of nowhere, compromising your health and relegating you to life’s sidelines. Suddenly, you are unable to do the things you love, not to mention the things you need to do to sustain your family, such as getting back to work as quickly as possible.
At Rosner Law Offices, P.C., our New Jersey personal injury lawyers know how difficult it is to recover from a personal injury. We also know you have many options when it comes to choosing a lawyer to represent your interests and protect your rights. With so much riding on the outcome of your case, it is important to choose wisely. Here are five questions to ask any New Jersey personal injury attorney you are considering.
Top 5 Questions to Ask New Jersey Personal Injury Lawyers
1. What Is Your Area of Practice?
You probably would not see an obstetrician if you broke your arm, and you most likely would not take your Chevy vehicle to a mechanic who only works on Hondas. Although these professionals have an educated idea about your problem, they do not specialize in your exact situation.
Legal issues are the same. When you have been injured in an accident in New Jersey, you need a law firm devoted to personal injury. More importantly, you need New Jersey personal injury lawyers who routinely handle personal injury cases at trial.
2. How Are Your Fees Structured?
All personal injury attorneys in New Jersey work on contingency.
3. Are You Accessible?
Our New Jersey personal injury lawyers are available 24 hours by phone or email. Our law firm can also be reached by text at (856) 502-1655 or by live chat on the website.
4. What Are Your Plans for My Case and How Long Will My Case Take?
Although no one has a crystal ball to predict the future, your lawyer should have a solid idea of how to proceed in your case.
Most people have heard horror stories of legal cases that dragged on for years, accumulating outrageous fees and leaving clients in an uncomfortable and stressful limbo. It’s impossible for any lawyer to know exactly how long a case will take to work its way through discovery, the possibility of settlement, and trial, but your lawyer should be able to give you a rough outline of the process and an estimate of how long each step should take.
