Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to Your Most Common Legal Concerns

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?

The time limit, or statute of limitations, for filing a personal injury claim varies by state but is typically between one and three years from the date of the accident. It's essential to consult an attorney early to avoid missing deadlines.

What should I do immediately after an accident?

After ensuring your safety and the safety of others, seek medical attention, even if injuries aren’t immediately apparent. Document the scene, gather contact information, and file a police report. Contact a personal injury attorney before speaking to insurance companies to protect your rights.

Do I have to go to court for my personal injury case?

Most personal injury cases are settled out of court through negotiations with insurance companies. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your case may go to trial. Your attorney will guide you through the process and represent you in court if necessary.

How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay any upfront fees. They only get paid if you win your case, typically taking a percentage of the settlement or award. This ensures you can pursue justice without financial risk.
