Personal Injury FAQ

Why do I need to hire a Personal Injury lawyer?

If your claim does not involve bodily injury, you MAY not need an attorney. However, as friendly and as helpful as the insurance adjuster sounds on the telephone to you, never forget his/her job is to pay as LITTLE as possible for your claim. This adjuster is NOT working for you as an attorney would be, and knows full well the added value an attorney brings to each injury claim. Also, remember to NEVER give a recorded statement until you have consulted with your attorney.

Frequently Asked Questions about Personal Injury Claims

How much is my Jacksonville Personal Injury case worth?

The answer to this difficult question is a result of at least three different legal issues: a) Negligence: who was at fault?; b) Damages: how badly were you hurt?; and c) Coverage: how much coverage do the parties have on their insurance? A fourth issue might be bad faith, which is too complicated to cover in this limited FAQ, but would add value to your claim, should circumstances align themselves properly to allow for its pursuit. However, even knowing all this information, it would be a disservice to attempt to forecast a value until the adverse party(ies)' legal positions on these issues are known. In all instances, though, it is HIGHLY recommended you NOT depend upon a recovery, and continue to plan your economic well-being based strictly upon your own means. Also, the timing of a recovery cannot ever be forecast, as many claims will require time-consuming litigation to resolve.

How do I pay for my Jacksonville Personal Injury Attorney?

Personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee basis. Payment for our legal representation is contingent on our reaching a successful case resolution in the form of either a verdict or settlement on your behalf. In the event of a successful case resolution, we will take a pre-determined percentage of the recovery as payment. This pre-determined percentage will be described in great detail in our contract of representation we present to you at the beginning of your case. If we do not obtain financial compensation on your behalf, you owe us nothing for our services.

How long will my Jacksonville personal injury claim take to settle?

This is again a function of liability, injuries, and coverage. For instance, if you were injured so severely, and through no fault of your own, that you required airlift from the scene of the accident to hospital intensive care, and the extent of coverage was minimal, your case should settle right away. This does not happen often, though, and the value of claims can be contended through pre-suit negotiations and well into litigation. The rule throughout this process is to allow your attorney sufficient time to wring as much value from your claim as possible. Insurance companies will delay the resolution of your claim in order to gain leverage, so you MUST allow your attorney time to adequately resolve your claim. If you place an artificial time limit upon your attorney, the amount of recovery can be substantially less.
