QUESTION: Do I need an attorney?
ANSWER: If you are dealing with an insurance company for an at-fault driver, keep in mind that the insurance company is looking to pay the very least amount possible for a claim. More importantly, insurance companies have teams of lawyers to help keep claim costs low. Therefore, in most cases, those who have been injured in an accident need an attorney of their own just to even the odds. They need an attorney who knows their rights, knows what damages to which they are entitled, and knows how to get insurance companies to pay a fair value for a claim.
