Why Should You Hire
A Car Accident Attorney?
2
Gotten Into A Car Accident
Many people go through it or have gone through
it. Many have gotten into a car accident. Its a
scary situation to be in. A lot of times its
completely out of your control. A car may have
rear-ended you. Now you have to deal with the
aftermath.
You dont have to go through it all alone. Hiring
a car accident attorney can make the whole
process smoother. It can truly benefit you in the
short run and the long run. Car accident
attorneys can help you understand time limits,
they can deal with the insurance company, and
calculate your damages.

Time Limits
  • Each state has a statute of limitations. This is
    basically a set period of time when you can bring
    a claim to court. An experienced car accident
    attorney can inform you of the statute of
    limitations.

If youre injured, your statute of limitations is
two years. For property damage, it is three years.
4
If youre planning on suing a government entity,
for example, a public bus because they ran into
you and caused an accident, then you only have 6
months to file.
You may even forfeit your right to sue if you try
to pursue it outside of the time limit. Car
accident lawyers can help you make a claim in a
timely manner that follows the statute of
limitations.
5
Will Deal With The Insurance Company
One of the most daunting things to deal with
after a car accident is the insurance company.
They want to pay as little as possible when it
comes to your claim. They may even try to offer a
fast settlement. However, this typically isnt
the best route. For example, your medical
expenses may be more than you expected and the
fast settlement may not have covered all of them.
If you accept a fast settlement then you cannot
go back to court to adjust your damage amounts. A
car accident attorney will have the knowledge on
how to deal with the insurance company and can
tell you what you really deserve.

Hiring An Attorney For Calculating Damages
When you get into a car accident you may not know
all the damages you could be awarded.
A car accident attorney can determine which
damages you may have available that is specific
to you and your case.

You Need Someone With Years Of Experience in Car
Accident
Plenty of accidents take place daily. This is not
a situation you want to be in but unfortunately,
you may have to go through it. When you get into
a car accident it scares you. Its unfair,
especially if it wasnt your fault. You need
someone to help lift the burden off of your
shoulders. Trying to tackle this situation alone
can be extremely difficult. You want someone who
is not only an expert in car accidents but is
used to dealing with them and your unique cases.
You need someone who is attentive to your
specific needs.
