Do you have a personal injury case? As a personal injury attorney, we want to provide you with a list of items to have or things to do if you have a personal injury case.
What is a Personal Injury Case
A personal injury lawsuit lets you get a legal remedy for all losses stemming from an accident or other incident where someone else’s carelessness or intentional conduct caused you to be injured. For example a car accident, a store that you were injured at because of a wet floor, etc. A personal injury lawsuit is a civil case usually filed by a person and filed against another individual or a company.
Personal Injury Lawsuit Checklist
Keep these items secure and organized when filing a personal injury lawsuit:
Medical Records
Police Report (if applicable)
Insurance Information and Reports
Wage Statements
Rental Fees (if applicable)
Photo or Video Evidence
Written Statements from Witnesses
Once you have these items together and organized, you can consult an attorney on the strength of your case and decide on the best course of action for your personal injury lawsuit. In some cases it the attorney may request further information regarding your personal injury case. In other circumstances what you have could be enough to begin the process.
Regardless of the outcome, it is important that you find an experienced personal injury attorney to represent you and your needs. Going with whatever attorney you see on TV or a billboard is probably not the best option. Those are firms that simply find a personal injury attorney in your area and contract them to handle the case. What you want is a law firm that is local to you, that you can meet with easily and most of all that you trust.
