2/2/2023

After you’ve been injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault, you may be wondering if you need to hire a personal injury attorney. While you are not required to have an attorney, there are several benefits of hiring one.

The information provided in this blog serves as general information and should not be considered legal advice. It is not a substitute for consulting with a qualified legal expert, and individuals should not make legal decisions solely based on this information. If you require personalized legal assistance regarding any personal injury, don't hesitate to contact Lawfty for guidance tailored to your specific situation.

An Attorney Can Help You Determine If You Have a Case

If you’re not sure whether or not your case meets the criteria for a personal injury lawsuit, an experienced attorney can review the facts of your case and give you their professional opinion. This can save you a lot of time and energy spent pursuing a case that may not be winnable.

An Attorney Will Help You Collect and Preserve Evidence

Evidence is critical to winning any legal case. An experienced personal injury attorney will know how to collect and preserve evidence so that it can be used to support your claim. This includes things like obtaining police reports, eyewitness statements, medical records, and more.

An Attorney Knows How To Build a Strong Case

Once all the evidence has been collected, an experienced personal injury attorney will know how to build a strong case by putting together the pieces of evidence in a way that supports your claim and tells a convincing story to the jury. They will also know what kind of experts to consult with to strengthen your case further.

An Attorney Will Fight For A Fair Settlement

Many personal injury cases are settled out of court without ever going to trial. If you do choose to settle your case, an experienced personal injury attorney will know how to negotiate with the insurance company to get you the best possible settlement offer. If the insurance company is unwilling to make a fair offer, they will be prepared to take your case to trial.

In short, while you are not required by law to have an attorney represent you in a personal injury case, there are many benefits of hiring one. An experienced personal injury attorney can save you time and energy, help preserve important evidence, build a strong case, and fight for a fair settlement offer if your case goes to trial.

Personal injury cases are unique and finding the right attorney for your case is difficult for someone that hasn’t had to do that before and doesn’t know the industry. Call Lawfty to help provide peace of mind by recommending the right attorney for your case, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
