What Do Personal Injury Attorneys Do?
A personal injury lawsuit is the result of a civil wrong, often referred
to as a “tort.” Our personal injury lawyers attempt to right these
wrongs through the civil justice system.
Morgan & Morgan’s experienced attorneys understand how to effectively
represent your rights to obtain money damages for your losses. Our
lawyers will inform the defense attorney and the insurance company of
the facts:
- The injuries you have sustained and other related losses
- The circumstances of the accident
- The reasons your injuries are the fault of the defendant
Trial Lawyers: Fighting for You
Some accident cases are settled without a trial. Other personal injury
lawsuits have to be resolved in court. Every case is different. The
personal injury attorneys at Morgan & Morgan are trial lawyers. Many of
our attorneys are in trial multiple times each year.
If a settlement offer is not fair and will not adequately compensate you
for your injuries, we are ready, willing, and able to go into the
courtroom and fight for your rights. Our reputation in the courtroom
precedes us. Other lawyers and the insurance companies know that we are
not afraid of a trial and that we will fight for our clients.
Steps in the Personal Injury Lawsuit Process
Once you hire us to represent you, we will immediately start working on
your case. Below is a general overview of some of the steps involved in
a personal injury lawsuit.
- Your attorney will contact the defendants and any insurance companies
involved to discuss the case
- An investigation of the events surrounding the accident or event will
be conducted. Evidence including witness testimony, surveillance
video, or police reports will be collected.
- All relevant medical records will be obtained. Usually, a final report
from the medical provider will be obtained after you complete your
treatment to determine the extent of the damages.
- After analyzing your losses, your attorney will put together a “demand
package” or “demand letter,” generally within 30 days of the end of
your treatment. This document will detail the extent of your injuries
and the facts surrounding the accident, as well as itemize the
monetary damages.
- If the attorneys cannot reach a reasonable pre-suit resolution
(settlement), they will proceed with a personal injury lawsuit
- Additional experts may be hired to support your claims for trial
- Witnesses and evidence will be prepared for trial
- Your case goes to court
At Morgan & Morgan we treat each of our Atlanta clients with personal
care. This level of care is absolutely necessary to achieve the best
results for you and your loved ones.
How Long Does a Lawsuit Take?
Not every accident lawsuit will strictly follow the steps outlined
above. The entire process can take considerable time and in some cases
may take years. A client only has one opportunity to pursue an injury
claim and seek a fair recovery. Patience combined with the right lawyer
are the keys to success in any personal injury case.
