Personal Injury Lawyer FAQ

Personal Injury Lawyer FAQ

Do I Really Need a Lawyer to Handle a Personal Injury Claim?

It depends upon the complexity of the claim. For example, if you are the victim of a minor, fender-bender auto collision with no personal injury then you can probably handle the claim through your own insurance company, or through the defendant insurance company if you do not carry collision coverage. If the auto collision results in any type of personal injury, it is usually better to hire an attorney who can help to coordinate your medical care and who has significant experience with techniques and strategies to maximize the value of the claim.

Benefits of Hiring a Personal Injury Lawyer?

When you hire a personal injury lawyer, you will have access to many years of experience in handling personal injury claims, thus maximizing the chance for a favorable outcome. When the attorney need not resort to litigation–a time-consuming and expensive process–the client comes out ahead. However, when and if there comes a time when litigation is necessary, you want a lawyer who has no qualms fighting for your rights before a judge or jury.

What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?

A personal injury lawyer functions to empower a client by helping him/her navigate through a very complicated and time-consuming process. He will listen to the client’s story in detail, conduct interviews, gather documentation, take photographs, present claims for benefits, and aggressively fight for a positive resolution.

Is There a Limit on How Much Time Can Pass Before I File a Personal Injury Claim?

Yes. In the State of Maryland, a plaintiff usually has 3 years from the date of the occurrence to file a claim in court in order to preserve his/her rights. However, in most claims the plaintiff will file an insurance claim within days of the occurrence and the claim will be resolved well before the three year deadline has passed.

How to Choose the Right Personal Injury Lawyer?

This is a matter of personal choice depending upon the factors that are most important to the individual. Some clients may prefer a lawyer who has a certain number of years of experience or a particular track record when it comes to winning cases. Other clients may prefer a lawyer is personal, accessible, explains the process well, and/or fluent in his/her language.

When to Hire a Worker's Compensation Lawyer?

In a worker’s compensation case, as well as in any other type of case, the best time to hire a lawyer is as soon as possible after the injury occurred.  When a lawyer is hired quickly, it allows him/her to begin conducting interviews, taking photographs, capturing video, hiring experts to examine the scene and download data, and other matters that require quick attention.  Hiring a lawyer quickly in time gives the lawyer greater opportunity to plan and execute a course of action which will maximize the chance of success.  You can still hire a lawyer later in the process, but there is a possibility that your case could be prejudiced.

What Types of Personal Injury Claims Have you Worked With?

This office has successfully handled auto accident, worker’s compensation, slip and fall, trip and fall, and other personal injury claims.

Should I Get a Lawyer for a Car Accident That Wasn't My Fault?

Absolutely.  Just because a car accident was not your fault, does not mean that the Defendant’s insurance company will willingly pony up all that you are owed.  Let’s be honest.  Insurance companies are in business to make money.  If they have to pay claims, they are making less money.  So naturally, they will attempt to pay you as little as possible if at all.   Daryl W. Price, Esquire, LLC has seen all the insurance company games and we are experienced in defeating them at their own games.  Whether you have property damage, personal injury, lost wage, pain and suffering, and/or personal injury protection or medical payments claims, we will fight to maximize your recovery.
