Fenton, 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 win a tort (injury) case, you and your lawyer have to prove how the other party is liable, causation, fault and financial damages. Here are a few questions victims often ask about their situation:

• 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 Fenton, MO personal injury lawyers are paid with a percentage of any case victory — called a contingency fee — and you don't pay unless we win.
• What should I do after an accident? It's important to go to a hospital or see your doctor. Medical records are extremely important if you are filing a claim and trying to win a settlement. Even if an injury does not seem serious, having a written document will help your case.
• How much is my case worth? There are a number of factors to consider when you calculate special and general damages. Damages can include things like lost earning potential, pain and suffering, medical expenses, loss of consortium, emotional distress, and others.
• What information do I need to give my attorney? It's important to keep track of everything. 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? The choice of a law firm is important, so you need to ask some questions before hiring one. For example, Do you have experience with this specific accident claim? Are you willing to take the case in front of a judge and jury? What's your fee? What is the monetary value of my claim? How long will the claim take to settle? Do I have a case if I'm partially at-fault? Do you believe in the merits of my claim? Why? Again, the more information the better.
