10 Questions to Ask an Injury Lawyer BEFORE You Hire Him or Her

After a car crash, pedestrian accident, motorcycle accident or tractor trailer wreck, an injured victim should hire the best accident attorney he or she can find.  When hiring a Harrisburg auto accident lawyer or a York personal injury lawyer, an injured person has many choices.  Here are some questions to ask your prospective lawyer BEFORE you hire him or her:

1.          How much experience does your firm have representing injured people?

2.          Have you ever been sued for legal malpractice?

3.          Are you covered by a legal malpractice insurance policy?

4.          Does your firm litigate cases, if necessary?

5.          Does your firm have the financial resources to take a serious injury claim to trial?

6.          What are the qualifications and experience of the people (both attorneys and non-attorneys) assigned to handle the day-to-day duties of my case at your office? 

7.          Who at your office (both attorneys and non-attorneys) will be communicating with the insurance company on my case?

8.          If I have a legal question during my case, can you assure me I can speak to my lawyer about it and not just to his or her paralegal?   

9.          Can I meet with my attorney during my case?

10.        Can you guarantee that your legal fee will not be more than the amount I receive after paying medical bills and case expenses?
