Their years of experience, extensive knowledge of the law, and the genuine desire to help made them the perfect team to handle my case.

Mr. Loignon is the best criminal law attorney I have ever worked with. From our first meeting, he explained everything to me in terms I could easily understand and was always very responsive when I had questions outside of our meetings. After calling around he had the best prices and even worked with me on a payment plan. The outcome was greater than I could’ve hoped for!! If anyone is looking for a knowledgeable attorney at a great price, then go to Mr. Loignon.

Pete represented me years ago in a car wreck case. He took the time to get to know me and my family and understood the financial and personal impact that my injuries had on me and my family. In the end, the other driver’s insurance company settled for the maximum limit under the other driver’s policy. Pete is a lawyer that truly cares about his clients. He is experienced in numerous areas of the law, from criminal defense, accident cases, and workers compensation. Without hesitation I have referred family, friends, and others to Pete for representation and will continue to do so.

We want to genuinely thank you (Nate and Brad) and all of your staff for the handling of my girlfriend’s case. Your professionalism and dedication that you showed us confirms that your firm was the perfect choice. Being Canadian and not knowing US State Law could have been very stressful but you explained and educated us throughout the entire process. You answered our endless emails and constantly reassured us that we would get through the difficult time together. Your ability to develop such a strong lawyer-client relationship had a great impact and alleviated much stress and anxiety. We want to give a personal shoutout to Brad for your sharp negotiation skills! Thank you for your determination and skill. With gratitude …

Mr. Dill was very professional and approachable. When you are represented by Michael Dill, you have complete access to him. On the first day I met with him, he explained my case to me in a way that I could understand. He gave me his personal cell phone number and told me that I could call him any time I had a question. He did a wonderful job on my case and got me much more money than I ever expected. He knew the law and how to fight the insurance company to get me what I deserved. Without him I would not have known my rights. I recommend him to anyone who has been in a car accident or is injured through the fault of someone else. He’s the best!”

I used this law firm recently and am very satisfied with the results. This firm saved me money by keeping the case from going through the courthouse and an excellent mediator was used for litigation instead. My attorney was straight forward, knowledgeable of the law and thorough, which means you will be doing some work to win your case. I absolutely recommend this law firm because they will get you the result you want!

Beverly represented me in a recently completed divorce. I retained her after being very unhappy with my first attorney’s attentiveness to my case. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. She got up to speed fast, no detail escaped her while always seeing the big picture and she made recommendations that ended up being instrumental in achieving what I told her was most important to me on that first introductory meeting. She and her paralegal, Laura, provided me with world-class representation and I’ll be forever grateful.

Taylor was more than great to deal with, he took all the hassle out of it, and got me rewarded more than fairly. I truly appreciate what he did. He was honest and straight up with me about what it was, and what it wasn't, and what we could, and could not do. He did what he said he would do, all while keeping me as informed as I needed to be, but never troubled me with anything. I could not have asked for a better performance; I didn't know it was a possibility. I hate that I had to wreck my truck to meet Taylor but I'm sure glad that my friend, Bruce sent me his way. It has been more than a pleasure doing business with Anderson & Schuster.

In October 2020 I injured my shoulder in a car accident. The best decision I ever made was trusting in Taylor Schuster at Anderson & Schuster. From the beginning I knew I was in great hands. Mr. Schuster kept me informed step by step throughout the process and being informed allowed me to focus on my surgery and recovery. When my case was settled, I was more than pleased with the outcome. By choosing Anderson & Schuster I felt like I was a part of the family. I'd never wish a car accident upon anyone, but if the worst happens, I highly recommend you give Taylor Schuster a call.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You

A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.

If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.

When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?

Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:

  • Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
  • Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
  • Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
  • Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
  • Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
  • Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.

What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?

A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
  • Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
  • Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
  • Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
  • Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
  • Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.

How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?

Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
  • Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.

Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a car accident lawyer is generally based on the contingency fee arrangement. General estimates include:

  • Contingency fee percentage: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. For example, if you receive a $100,000 settlement and the lawyer's fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000, and you'd keep the remaining $67,000.
  • Case expenses: Additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness costs, and administrative fees can range from $1,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.

Ensure you get a clear explanation of fees and expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Car Accident Lawyer

Before hiring a car accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:

  1. What experience do you have with car accident cases?
    Confirm the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, especially involving serious injuries or complex liability issues.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial.
  5. Will you handle my case personally?
    Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement.
  6. What kind of compensation can I expect?
    Ask about the types of damages you may be entitled to, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

How to Check the Credibility of a Car Accident Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  • Review their experience: Look for specialization in personal injury and car accident cases.
  • Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
  • Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
  • Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:

  • Police report: A copy of the accident report filed by the police.
  • Medical records: Documentation of your injuries, treatments, and medical expenses.
  • Photos and videos: Any visual evidence from the accident scene and of your injuries.
  • Insurance information: Copies of your insurance policy and any correspondence with insurance companies.
  • Witness information: Contact details and statements from any witnesses.
  • List of questions: Prepared questions about your case and the legal process.

Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
