After eleven months of trying to deal with a large insurance company I decided to seek professional help. I then contacted Cheryl Farrish at the Certa Law Group. From that point onwards Cheryl and her very competent colleagues took care of everything in an efficient, professional and friendly manner. Eventually, they got me a settlement five times my initial demand. Without them, I would have struggled to pay the medical and auto mechanic bills from the accident. With them, I received a settlement that allowed me to pay all my bills and leave the accident in the past.

I was unable to resolve an accident case so decided to seek legal assistance. After conversing with Cheryl Farrish at Certa Law Group regarding my situation I was encouraged by her understanding and felt comfortable about selecting Certa Law Group to represent me. During the negotiation phase with the insurance company , she and Cortney Williams, Paralegal, kept me apprised of developments and sought my opinion at appropriate times. I received replies to my questions without hesitation. I am happy with the settlement reached. I would definitely use them again if necessary.

Having never needed an attorney before I was a bit skeptical about the process. From day one I felt well taken care of by Cheryl and her team. I was in a car accident in 2019 and it was evident that my well being was put first. She took care of everything and I was able to concentrate on getting well. My questions were always answered immediately and the explanations were easy to understand. The settlement process was quick and we were very pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend Cheryl and her team. True professionals!

I had an injury due to a flu shot. While I eventually did recover, I had lost work time as well as over $600 of physical therapy co-pays that I was responsible for. I had read that there is a way to get compensated by the government for losses such as these and I was referred to the Burdettes. Over the course of almost 2 years Kelly kept in touch with me, got the documentation she needed, and amazingly enough, I actually got a settlement from the government. I had not even known such a service existed. I am very grateful to Kelly for all that she did and will use her again if I need legal services.

In my profession (Police Detective Seattle Police) its sometimes hard to find legal advice that you can really trust. I did not hire John as he was able to assist me without retaining him. He spent a few hours on the phone with me which he did not have to do, and was able to coach me through the problem I was having. He went above anything I expected and yet wont let me buy him a beer. John, while you aren't my lawyer you have truly done a service to me that I am very thankful for. For you to consult with me the many times you did, at no cost I'm grateful.

John and his staff were great! They settled my case with more money than I had hoped for. My case was difficult to begin with since it was at a four way intersection and I was t-boned. John Greaney is a phenomenal attorney with years of experience and he's dedicated to do the absolute best for his clients. He's extremely intelligent and will fight tooth and nail for you, probably the best attorney I know and I work in this field. Insurance companies are no match for him to deal with. Highly recommend!

I was recently taken advantage of by someone in the medical field. It was a sensitive and tricky case but The Greaney Law Firm took it anyway. Karen Scudder and staff worked well as a team in support of John Greaney. They were all very respectful and sensitive to my needs. They helped me get the help I needed and fought hard for justice for me. John discussed my options with me when we got settlement offers. We held out for a larger settlement and got it! It far exceeded my expectations. I couldn’t have been more impressed with everyone in the office. I put my trust in them and they all really came through for me!-SL

Mr. Harkins represented me in a fair and competent manor and extracted the full amount of compensation my insurance policy allowed. The insurance company had only offered 46% of my personal injury amount under my policy. My accident was the result of an uninsured, unlicensed teenage driver crossing the center line of the roadway and crashing head-on into my vehicle with my wife and I both sustaining injuries. Mr. Harkins' through research and due diligence prevailed during an arbitration meeting with the arbitrator ruling in my favor thus enticing the insurance companies change of heart.

Christopher Cazares is the best military lawyer I could have hired. I was facing a drug court-martial as part of a “drug ring.” I watched Christopher outperform every lawyer in the room, including the senior prosecutor. His confidence and experience were levels above what I could have hoped for. After several days in court, my case was ultimately dismissed and I have resumed my career as if this investigation and court-martial never happened. I had both Christopher and a military appointed lawyer and the difference in experience was night and day. I can’t imagine what would have happened if I only had a military attorney. Several of the people in the ring went with just military attorneys and they either plead guilty or were found guilty. Christopher gave me confidence in my case and would always check up on me during this long process. He was calm and gave me good advice that lead to my innocence. He was well worth the money and I would hire again.

I slipped and fell on ice at a business that didn't take precautions for their patrons safety on the sidewalks or parking lot. I was hurt quite badly. I was treated rudely by the manager and made to feel like it was my fault I fell and was humiliated! My sister convinced me to call an attorney for advise because of my injuries. I looked up attorneys and made a call. I told him what happened and he said that Lloyd Herman is the attorney I need to get in contact with. I called him and right away he took action. The very next day he went out to the place I fell and took pictures of where I fell. He could prove that the grounds had ice and snow build up and was not safe for the people walking on it. He had me see the doctors I need to see for my injuries and at times drove me to my appointments. He was absolutely wonderful. Lloyd Herman and his staff treat you like family and honestly care about what you are going through. I wouldn't recommend anyone else for a lawyer and a good person, smart, knows exactly what to do and does it. If you need to make a call it only takes one! Lloyd Herman. ONE CALL THATS ALL! So glad I did! By the way he won the case for us!

My case seemed to be impossible with having been turned down by 6 other law firms since the auto accident and the deadline to file an insurance claim only days away. The first attorneys told me “we don’t see this case as being reasonable”, and the others asked, “why did you wait so long”, all of which were incredibly frustrating. I had been to numerous Doctor Appointments and referred to a variety of Specialists. There were countless Physical, Occupational, and Massage Therapy appointments. I was prescribed an array of medications and had a regiment of at home exercises, ice pack and heating pad treatments with nothing helping the pain I was in. I really felt hopeless about my case and my physical injuries ever improving. My fiancé, seeing my discouragement, called Lloyd Herman and Associates. Lloyd didn’t hesitate to take on the incredibly challenging case I had ahead of me and really treated me like family. He was able to get me to the right Medical Professionals to get a real diagnosis of my injuries and he and his Legal Assistant were there for me every step of the way. My case was resolved with the very best possible outcome and I could not be happier. If you are truly looking for the “one call, that’s all”, Lloyd Herman and Associates is it!

I highly recommend Zach Thal if you need help navigating an employment concern. I hired Zach and Spencer Thal to represent me in a lawsuit against my employer for gender discrimination, and I am so glad I did. They took my case to trial, and won! Zach prepared me to be deposed by opposing counsel, and also accompanied me to the deposition. Being deposed is a very stressful and invasive process, but Zach told me what to expect and helped me stay calm. I'm so glad he was there to support me during the hours of questioning. Zach also prepared me to be a witness for myself during the trial. He developed questions for me to answer to share my story and experience. It was very awkward to tell a jury full of strangers about the emotional pain I suffered as a result of the employment discrimination, but Zach got me through it. When I was being cross examined, he protected me by objecting to irrelevant questions, which I really appreciated. I urge you to Zach Thal if you think that you are being discriminated against at work. He took me and my case seriously and secured a win for me at trial.

Following a vicious pit bull attack while on duty as a Deputy Sheriff, I retained Kristi who works as a team with Jay Flynn. Kristi formulted a plan for the case and began sending me to doctors for formal and professionally documented evaluations. After a year of medical examinations from the defense and our side, The defense requested to mediate. This is where Kristi's ability really shined. For sake of a long description, Kristi's negotiating skills with the Insurance company was BRILLIANT. We had an initial offer of $100K to $125K to $145K.

Rob represented me when a negligent driver ran a red light. I did not see it coming and there was nothing I could do to avoid the collision. The collision happened while I was on the job. Since the case happened while I was on the job we had to deal with the insurance company for workman’s comp and the insurance company who represented the negligent driver. The process was very complicated and I was totally confused and frustrated after trying to deal with both insurance companies. It was clear that they were not there to help me. I hired the firm of Crary, Clark Domanico & Chuang and I was amazed how quickly they took control of my case, stood up to the insurance companies and got my case resolved. I trusted their advice and we were able to take all the available insurance coverage from the negligent driver and get me back to work. I was extremely satisfied with the representation I received and would highly recommend their firm for your personal injury claim.

I was injured in an accident on city property. My injuries required corrective surgery and extensive rehab. Russell and Hill took my case and Brandon Batchelor worked on my behalf to ensure that my rights were protected. Initially, the City denied any liability and refused a settlement. Brandon fought on my behalf for over three years and finally obtained a settlement that ensured the medical bills were paid and that I was compensated for my injuries. It was a long and arduous process that I hope never to repeat but if any similar situation should ever arise, I would be happy to have Brandon on my side.

Liz was our constant support and advisor during our case against a hospital that did not provide standard of care for my husband resulting in a significantly shortened lifespan as well as a difficult one. Liz was the one we first called or emailed with questions -- and we had lots! Never did she seem we were taking too much of her time, and she always provided her expert opinion and advice in an easy to understand, thoughtful and kind manner. While our attorneys got to know a lot about our lives, they shared some about their own, so we enjoyed learning about Liz's children, one of whom she gave birth to during the process. Through depositions and a mediation Liz informed us very well about the process so we weren't taken by surprise in any way. She and her colleagues (a senior attorney and paralegal) were excellent legal support. They guided us to a successful settlement while understanding that we'd trade the money for the injury to have never happened. We struggled at first because we understood that accidents do happen, even in medicine. But Liz and her colleague made it clear that the number of errors that added up to our end result required both change and some recompense. Liz helped us share ways we believed could prevent such a future situation in a way that the hospital could hear and even implement, and the settlement money will assist us to bear more easily the stark changes in our lives we will endure during the near future. I'm grateful to Liz and her firm for her guidance and successful result.

When you meet Liz, you can immediately tell that she has an exceptionally sharp mind, and is in the top of her field. At our first meeting, Liz was already fluent in our case. She explained things in a way that was easy for a non-attorney to understand. This helped her build an immediate rapport with my family and me.

This guy deserves so much more than just 5 stars. I meat Matt through a mutual friend because of a 17 year old bench warrant came calling. I also work in the legal field and it was messing with my job, my daughter was getting married in the same state as this warrant and i couldnt do the 10 days of jail. This was a Failure to Comply Bench Warrant 10 Days Jail-No Bond for a DWLS 3rd Degree. Needless to say the prosecutor was not making any deals. Matt prepared a Motion and set the hearing. I of course was a nervious wreck. However, the judge found in favor for defense because Matt did his homework. He was respectful, professional and was not afraid to argue the case out against the State. HE'S AWESOME and i cant thank him enough for what he has done for me. The outcome for me was a recalled bench warrant and my 40 hrs of community service reinstated. If you want someone that will fight for you and go the extra mile for you, this guy is it. He definately WONT let you down. THANK YOU AGAIN MATT :) Oh and i forgot to say, my hearing was during his vacation; he came back to town for my hearing then went back out and finished his vacation with his family.

There are no words that can adequately express my sincerest gratitude for Mr. Albrecht and his wonderful staff! When all hope seemed to be lost, he went above and beyond the duties of an attorney. Actions speak louder than words and Mr. Albrecht's actions sent a clear message that my case was as personal to him as it was to me. I can't thank you and your kind, considerate, and courteous staff, specifically Melanie, for how you treated me during a time that has been life changing for myself and my children. The crime that was committed against me has forever changed me and reshaped the future for my family. Because you expressed your belief in me and the validity of the horrific situation I had endured, it gave me the strength to continue fighting even when it seemed hopeless. Again, I can't thank you enough for your service and for believing me! Thank you!

I contacted the Albrecht Law with an enquiry regarding a recent auto accident in which I was involved. Navigating the insurance company relative to personal injury, general damages etc. can be a challenge especially considering that the insurance adjusters are working very hard to decrease THEIR costs. Matt generously offered me his time and expertise and seemed genuinely interested that I establish a clear path to a proper, fair settlement. He was organized, professional and caring - all valued & desirable attributes of a good attorney. His insights and advice were immensely helpful to me and I appreciated it enough to author this review.

Troy is definitely worth his weight in gold. He helped restore my husband's gun rights after a 10 year wait. There was a lot of messy paperwork and he and his office handled everything and let us know exactly how to handle the bits we needed to do. On the day of the hearing, we literally walked in, and just a few minutes later were told that my husband had indeed earned his rights back. We are so grateful for all of the hard work Troy put in! Thank you Troy!

When my future father in law passed, my fiancé and I were not sure how he would execute the will or where to even start. We found Jody and her practice and she immediately began explaining the process to us. I absolutely don't know how we would have navigated this process through grief without her. Thank you to Jody (and her paralegal Ethel) for being helpful and patient, being willing to answer dozens of small (and probably obvious/simple) questions to help us navigate. We plan to use Jody to help us plan our own estate after we are married so that we have a plan together. Thank you, Jody, for showing us the importance of preparation and helping us navigate!

Dan Clare has been an absolute pleasure to work with! Dealing with most insurance companies is all great when you're paying your monthly premium. Things change drastically when you encounter a situation that requires them to provide you a return on your investment! After a recent car accident my life changed drastically. I was forced to take a leave of absence from work because the pain was interfering with my activities of daily living. I tried handling matters on my own with the insurance companies to no avail. That's where Dan Clare comes in to the picture. He rejected their laughable initial settlement offer, and worked diligently to get me the settlement I deserved. Dan kept me in the loop every step of the way. I would recommend Dan to anyone seeking an attorney with not only decades of experience, but also one with integrity, and outstanding professionalism! Thank you Dan for taking on, and resolving my accident/injury case! Sabrina

Dan showed empathy toward the challenges of divorce and mediation, and remained solidly on my side throughout all of the proceedings. He provided strong, intelligent, clear and honest counsel. During that very difficult time I always felt fully represented. Now I can move forward, confident with a new life that allows my children to be well supported both emotionally and financially, thanks to a fair settlement due to the excellent work provided by Dan and the rest of the staff at Clare Law Firm.

I was in a pretty bad car accident back in October of 2013. After consulting with Ashley Armstrong, I made the decision to hire her. I had sustained a severe back injury from my accident, Ashely felt confident that she knew exactly how to handle the case, as I informed her I had previous accidents and other back issues in the past. It took just short of 4 years to get my case settled. I was not in the state for about 1 year of it, and she kept me informed along the whole way. She would call or email whenever I needed to sign documents, meet with her, or for just a quick life update. Ashley handled everything for me so I did not have to worry. It was a battle back and forth between her and the insurance attorney and she fought for me and never gave up. She helped me get through the deposition and the settlement conference. My case ended up getting settled before the trial date and that is all because of Ashley and her team. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for any type of car accident or personal injury case. Very thankful she was in my corner and helped tremendously.

When I first walked into the Ryan, Montgomery & Armstrong, Inc. P.S. office, I had no idea I would be dealing with a wrongful death claim. I originally went in to hire a different lawyer for settling an estate, but soon realized there was a lot more on my hands. I was quickly directed to Ashley who handled the wrongful death portion. Ashley handled my case very professionally and gracefully. She helped to settle the claim quickly and painlessly during one of the hardest times in my life. I was always updated thoroughly whenever something came up and I never felt I didn't understand what was happening. I also felt very much at ease because she handled everything, taking away most of the stress that comes with a wrongful death. Ashley was very attentive to my needs and provided a comprehensive view of the case, so that I could make the best decision based on all the facts. I truly felt like I could place my trust in her and that she would do everything for best of my interest. I couldn't have been more pleased with the results either. Although it was a hard time to go through, I am positive that Ashley made this experience much easier to deal with. I feel that she went above-and-beyond the duty of a lawyer and felt that I had a friend on top of a lawyer. I highly recommend Ashley as she will be a complete and solid team member.

I met Stephanie the day after severe car accident in February 2016. At the time I had no idea how badly I was injured . The first thing Steaphine advised me to do was be treated. This became a 31/2 years journey. Of surgerys , doctors and therapists. The worst was a brain injury. Through all of that Stepahnie was always on my side. Fighting for me encouraging me . She always told me the truth. She became a advocate for me . She never quit even when I wanted to . She always respected me and all decisions were mine. But she always gave me wise and valued council. Her faith in me and my case gave me the courage to keep fighting . I have worked with several attorneys in my life . I have never met one who cared so much about me as a person and really understood what I felt and the loss I was experiencing. One of the best decisions in my life was hiring her as my attorney . Stepahnie is just a great human . Her integrity, honestly and devotion are in unmatched. She is a very skilled attorney and negotiator . Thank you Stepahnie for helping me get my life back. Pete!!

He and his assistant were also extremely helpful with negotiating the property damage part of the case despite it not resulting in additional money for them. I've never needed a lawyer for anything before, so I was a little nervous but Parker made the whole process smooth and painless. He also got my case settled for 4x what I expected going in, which is a big plus. Highly recommended.

Back in May of 2018, I was rear-ended at a stoplight. While I only suffered minor injuries, my car was deemed a total loss by the insurance company. Since I had been involved in a similar car accident nearly 10 years earlier I thought why not skip the attorney become a DIY (Do It Yourself), attorney. I could just deal with the Insurance Company on my own and keep more money this way. Not a good idea. After 3-4 months of agonizing discussions, the insurance company finally made me an offer that was embarrassing low. I think they figured I would just go away. Their offer was far less than my previous car accident 10 years prior and I felt that I was being rear-ended for a 2nd time. So, I reached out to Parker Reich. While my case was a pretty small case he willingly took it anyway, much to my surprise. I had spoken with two other attorneys who basically said it was not worth their time. So, I sat back and just let Parker do what attorney’s do. Aside from the occasional call to get some details from me, I really did nothing. I was not in a hurry. After nearly a year, Parker reached a settlement that was nearly 6x more than my original settlement offer. I was thrilled. He and his staff did an excellent job of getting a fair settlement. I was never looking to get rich; I was simply trying to find a fair settlement for the situation. Lessons learned: 1.) If you think you can just do it yourself and save the attorney fees. Think again. 2.) If you try to do it yourself, you will probably create problems when you eventually do hire an attorney down the road. They will have to clean up your mess. 3.) Get more than one opinion if you are unsure about your case. Parker may have taken on my small case today, but if I ever get in a situation with far higher dollar figures involved, I know where to go. If my friends ask me for a referral, I will refer Parker. Parker and his team did an excellent job and always kept me informed of what reality looked like and helped by setting expectations. I understood the process, the potential outcome and the results were not just as predicted but better. Sincerely,

Did I mention integrity? Mr. Shultz came recommended by an attorney in Spokane. When meeting with him, he explains the pros and cons of each option, with patience and clarity, often providing examples from his decades of experience. He is well connected in the legal and business communities. He follows up on his commitments EXACTLY as agreed upon. He usually takes calls out of the blue, and when he doesn't, he readily returns calls, generally that day. He has never talked down to my wife or I, and is a gentleman to the core. He is a extremely pleasant individual with a great sense of humor. After hiring him to resolve an issue with a deadbeat contractor, which he did, he has provided me advice on other legal concerns without asking for reimbursement. Overall, his time and cost charges are extremely fair and reasonable. We put 5K down as a retainer, and received a good portion back after the issue was resolved. He has in depth knowledge and experience in a wide swath of legal areas. In the legal field of the Tri City area, Mr. Schultz is a blinding white beacon among a plethora of dim lights. He is the ONLY lawyer I would recommend PERIOD.

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.
