Do I need to contact a personal injury attorney?

After the car wreck, it felt like his shoulder was badly bruised — not something to worry about. But three weeks later, the pain was worse. The insurance company questioned whether it was an accident injury. By questioning witnesses early on, our law firm was able to document the injury and make a full recovery from the accident.

If you have suffered injury in a car accident:

* Have you been to the hospital or seen a doctor? Get medical attention immediately. You need to know the extent of your injuries. The sooner your injuries are examined and treated, the sooner you can get your life back to normal.
* Are you stressed out about the ramifications of the accident, or are you focusing on your recovery? Muscle tears, disk herniation, broken bones, and joint injuries may require rest, physical therapy, or surgery. Catastrophic injuries require far more care — including lifetime care. Your health should be your focus; your attorney should carry the stress of the legal questions for you.
* Are you confused about how to deal with the insurance companies? Insurance companies are not on your side. An insurance adjuster will look for any reason to downplay or minimize your injuries. Let your Austin auto accident lawyer do the talking and negotiating. We have the experience, patience, and determination to assure your fair treatment.
* Do you feel there is more to the story of your accident? Our law firm investigates. We talk to witnesses and to the police if necessary, and, when needed, we will do an extensive accident investigation to assure your rights are protected.
* Can you describe the gravity of your accident? Let your attorney tell your story. Whether we are working toward settlement or trial, our lawyers effectively tell your car accident story. We collect the proper elements of our clients' stories, including 911 tapes, photos, police reports, and medical records. We also interview witnesses, including police officers and doctors. We are known for our effective settlement videos that tell our clients' stories.
