Having a personal injury attorney you can trust is essential
Following a personal injury accident, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. You are probably eager to put the whole situation behind you as quickly as possible, but it is important not to let this impulse lead you to choose the first personal injury attorney you come across.
Even when an attorney looks excellent on paper—great credentials, solid track record of winning cases, and many testimonials from satisfied clients—this doesn’t necessarily mean that this is the best attorney for you.
Your personal injury case is by nature a highly personal matter, and you need to feel confident you are choosing a personal injury attorney you can trust with this sensitive and important matter. Before hiring your attorney, it is wise to take advantage of a free initial consultation to meet the attorney in person and see how you get along with them. Ideally, you should be looking for an attorney like Michael A. Kahn who will give you his undivided, compassionate attention during the consultation and will work diligently for your best interests throughout the case.
Here are four important reasons you must choose a personal injury attorney that you feel you can have a personal relationship with.
Your Case Needs Individualized Attention
Every personal injury case is different, and a good attorney recognizes this, treats clients as individuals, and crafts personalized legal strategies to suit their specific needs.
You Need to Feel Comfortable Discussing Your Injuries
The physical trauma caused by your accident can be documented with photos, x-rays, and medical bills. But what about the many ways this trauma has affected your life? To document all your suffering so that you may be fairly compensated for it, you are going to need to discuss intimate details of your life with your attorney. Having a caring and compassionate attorney makes this much easier.
You and Your Attorney Need to Work as a Team
It is very important for you and your attorney to be on the same page as to your goals in the case. Your attorney will advise you as to what compensation may be reasonably expected and you need to trust them on this matter.
You Need to Have Open Lines of Communication
One final reason to choose an attorney that seems open to personal connections with clients is that you may find yourself with urgent questions or needs for advice from your attorney. You need to feel confident your attorney is going to return your calls promptly and be patient with your questions and concerns.
