3 Ways to Win your Personal Injury Claim
When you hire a successful personal injury claim firm like ours, we offer a number of ways to win your personal injury claim—including:
1. Settlement
Settling your claim sounds like an easy strategy…but it isn’t. Settling a claim—successfully—requires filing a claim with enough evidentiary support to warrant the other party considering settling. You also must be ready to stare down the opposing council—while being entirely prepared to go to court, because you may indeed need to go to court. Knowing when in the process to offer a settlement is an art form (that pays).
2. Documentation
No personal injury claim can be won if you don’t have proper evidentiary support. So, the biggest piece of advice we can give you is to be thoroughly prepared for court. This means thorough—and well-sorted and well-filed—documentation of your medical and out-of-pocket expenses, in addition to all the follow-up paperwork, including: police and other emergency-response personnel reports, insurance claim adjustor reports, medical paperwork and other documentation.
3. Go To Trial
If the opposing party refuses to for a settlement amount that is in both your favours, then you need to be prepared to go to trial. When you go to trial you need to ensure that you have the proper documentation, witnesses—and an experience personal injury attorney (although most experienced attorneys, 9 out of 10 times, can keep you from going to court).
