Once you retain a law firm to lead your car accident case, expect your lawyer and their team to:
Explain the next steps: Your lawyer will lay out the next steps in your case. They will be in charge of all important responsibilities, so they may simply urge you to focus on your recovery and follow your doctor’s orders.
Develop a case strategy: Each case requires a unique, personalized strategy. Your lawyer will review all relevant information and create a strategy specific to you.
Lead all case-related responsibilities: Your attorney will lead communications, deal with insurance companies, and take all other case-related duties off your hands.
Update you as the case progresses: Expect your lawyer to be in touch about the status of your case. This should provide peace of mind that your claim or lawsuit is moving forward and that your lawyer is in control.
Insurance claims and lawsuits can be complex, but this isn’t your concern. Allow your car accident lawyer to handle the day-to-day responsibilities of your case while you work toward recovery.
