Common Questions Do You Need a Lawyer? Injuries are a part of life. No matter how careful we are, most of us will sustain injuries of one kind or another in the course of lifetime, some more serious than others. When you or a loved one is injured, it is most important to find out whether or not you are entitled to compensation. It is essential to take immediate steps to protect the injured person’s rights.  Immediately after an accident, insurance companies begin to collect evidence, interview witnesses, and conduct a comprehensive investigation. Quick action is taken because soon after an accident, critical evidence may be lost or destroyed.

When should I contact an attorney after an accident? It is essential to retain an attorney immediately. In any type of case where witnesses’ testimony plays a crucial role in the outcome of a lawsuit, memories of the accident dim with the passing of time. An attorney will attempt to obtain written statements from witnesses shortly after the accident so their memories can be refreshed subsequently when the case is ready of trial.  In medical malpractice cases, the more time that elapses between the time of the malpractice and the time in which you retain an attorney, the greater the possibility for medical records, nurses’ notes, physician and hospital records to become missing, or lost; the same concerns in product liability cases.
