Barnhart, MO Personal Injury Lawyer: Frequently Asked Questions

There are several things that need to get done if you want to win an injury case. To make a successful personal injury claim, you're going to have to prove how the other party caused your injuries, cause in fact, fault and financial damages. Below are a few questions you might ask about your claim:

• How much does it cost to hire a lawyer? You do not have to pay anything up-front to retain our services. Put simply, our Barnhart, MO personal injury lawyers are paid with a percentage of the final compensation you recover — called a contingency fee — and you only pay if there is a successful resolution to your claim.
• What should I do after an accident? The first step is to get medical assistance. Medical records are extremely important if you are filing a claim and hoping to win a settlement. Even if an injury seems minor, some injuries do not reveal themselves immediately, and delaying treatment could hurt your case.
• How much is my case worth? There are a number of variables when you figure out the economic and noneconomic damages. Damages may include things like lost earning potential, pain and suffering, medical expenses, loss of consortium, loss of ability to enjoy life, and others.
• What do I need to give my lawyer? The more information the better. Any witness testimonies, the name of the ambulance company, medical records, names, dates, phone numbers, pictures, expenses, and other material go a long way in a personal injury case. This documentation helps us justify financial damages.
• What should I ask my lawyer? There's a few things you should ask before deciding on a law firm. For example, Do you have experience with this specific injury? Do you go to trial? How much or a percentage do you charge? How much can I win? How long does it take to get a settlement? Do I have a case if I'm partially at-fault? What do you think my chances of winning are? Why? Again, the more information the better.
