Owensville, 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 how the injury has affected you financially, emotionally and physically. 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 Owensville, MO personal injury lawyers take a portion of the final compensation you recover — called a contingency fee — and you only pay if there is a successful resolution to your claim.
• If I'm injured, what do I need to do? The first step is to get medical assistance. Medical records are very important when you're filing a claim and hoping to win a settlement. Even if an injury seems minor, having a written document will help your case.
• How much is my case worth? There are a number of variables when you calculate special and general damages. Damages can include things like lost earning potential, pain and suffering, medical bills, loss of consortium, emotional distress, 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 other questions should I ask before hiring a lawyer? The choice of a law firm is important, so you need to ask some questions before hiring one. For example, Have you had this kind of case before? 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? What if I was partially responsible for the accident? What do you think my chances of winning are? Why? Again, the more information the better.
