Accidents happen more often than we’d like them to and they result in a variety of injuries, both physical and emotional. Motor-vehicle accidents and slip and fall accidents cause injuries that may be minor like bruises, cuts, lacerations, sprains or burns, while others could be more serious resulting in broken bones, severe bleeding, dental damage, etc. The most serious injuries are brain and spine injuries, skull or pelvic fracture, rib or sternum fractures, loss of function like vision or memory, internal organ damage, etc. Many of these lead to disability, disfigurement or even death. Medical attention is obviously the essential priority, but it’s also important to contact a Wilberforce personal injury lawyer as early as possible. Accidents are caused by another person’s fault or negligence and the injured are entitled to seek compensation from those responsible for the accident.
Many accident victims may be unaware of the fact that most personal injury attorneys offer an initial, free, no-obligations consultation to assess the merits of your case. Based on such an evaluation, the client can decide whether to go forward with filing the personal injury claim or not. This should be done as early as possible, as there are strict time-frames that are stipulated for filing claims. Another important factor is that this would help victims avoid any pitfalls or errors in the complex paperwork. It also prevents the at-fault party’s insurers from contacting victims directly. As our Wilberforce car accident lawyer and Wilberforce slip and fall accident lawyer are aware, accident victims and their families go through a traumatic time following the disaster. They experience confusion, fear, pain, suffering, grief, etc and at such a vulnerable time, it’s possible that the at-fault party’s insurers could get them to make inadvertent statements or admissions, sign submissions or authorizations etc that could be recorded and used to weaken your claim later.
Consulting a Wilberforce injury lawyer can help you get the right medical evaluations, rehabilitation and treatment and the documentation required by insurance companies as proof to back your claim. Though most claims are settled out-of-court, if negotiations prove unsatisfactory, an experienced accident injury lawyer can also represent you at trial.
