Being seriously injured can be a life-changing and overwhelming experience, especially if it happened through no fault of your own. The severity of your injury could disrupt your usual lifestyle, take you away from work, and result in costly medical bills and lost wages. You may also have to undergo a long, difficult journey to physical healing, which can involve extensive rehabilitation, specialization, and treatment. Depending on the nature of the accident, some injuries may also involve seemingly endless questioning from doctors, law enforcement, and insurance companies.
When you’ve been injured in an accident, you have the right to file a personal injury lawsuit. If you’re seriously hurt and are looking at loss of income, extensive medical treatment, or are experiencing significant pain and diminished quality of life as a result of the accident, a personal injury lawyer can fight for a financial settlement that achieves some measure of compensation — if not justice — for what you’ve endured.
So why hire a personal injury lawyer at Dordulian Law Group after you’ve been in an accident? Here are eight good reasons.
You probably have many questions to ask a personal injury lawyer about your particular case and unique circumstances. An experienced personal injury lawyer, like those at Dordulian Law Group, can answer any question you may have based not only on their extensive knowledge of the law, but by drawing on their years of experience as well. Our attorneys know exactly how personal injury laws work in California, as well as how to file all the necessary paperwork with the court. They can set you up for the best chance of success before aggressively negotiating for a settlement on your behalf.
In addition to knowing how to navigate court procedure, personal injury lawyers know how to work with insurance companies. Our veteran personal injury attorneys and their teams know their way around insurance adjusters and policies, and so can effectively negotiate or contest denials if needed.
Many injury attorneys and insurance companies calculate settlements based on factors such as ongoing and future medical treatment, loss of income, and general damages, which cover less quantifiable kinds of damage: pain and suffering, physical discomfort, stress, and the impact of the accident on the injured’s quality of life.
Experienced personal injury lawyers use these formulas to arrive at a figure that becomes the basis of negotiation—depending on the circumstances of your case, this value can go up or down. We know how to calculate this figure precisely.
Our personal injury lawyers can build your case by establishing degrees of fault and liability. They do this by gathering documents, reconstructing the accident, looking at surveillance footage, interviewing key people such as doctors, even going through social media to find relevant information, if another party is involved in the accident. .
Usually, personal injury lawyers will deploy a team to collect and assess evidence to back up your case. This team can bring in other experts to help you, if needed. That’s a benefit of leveraging Dordulian Law Group’s network of professionals that we’ve built over the years.
Observing proper procedure and legal requirements is the key to maximizing your chances of receiving fair compensation. Our personal injury lawyers will completely take care of the documents for your lawsuit; from crafting demand letters, to setting the stage with the filing of the complaint and pretrial motions, to trial, collection, or even appeal.
An experienced lawyer can make sure your interests are served every step of the way, and never miss an important deadline, form, or opportunity to bolster your case.
Dordulian Law Group’s personal injury attorneys work on a contingency basis, meaning their compensation is tied to the size of the settlement that you’ll win. That should be a sufficient starting point to realize that our personal injury lawyers are highly motivated to advocate for you to the best of our ability. When you hire a professional that’s confident enough to work on contingency, you know you have someone who will assertively fight for you.
Not every personal injury case has to end in a trial. In most cases, attorneys will settle a personal injury claim out of court, which can save claimants a lot of time, money, and emotional distress. A veteran personal injury lawyer knows when an injury claim can be resolved through mediation or arbitration, or when a case will have to reach the court system.
Accidental injuries don’t just cause physical pain; they also bring about mental anguish and emotional trauma, as well as financial worries. The anger and pain that you’re going through may cause this ordeal to become overwhelming for you at times.
Our personal injury attorneys have seen it all over the years, and we understand exactly what you’re going through. That leaves us uniquely positioned to anticipate your needs before you experience them, and find ways to ease the difficulties you’re newly facing.
When you’re seriously injured, our firm strongly believes that you should be focused primarily on your recovery. The process of seeking compensation for your injuries or fighting with an insurance company can be an additional source of anxiety, since it can a labor-intensive, time-consuming process. If you hire our personal injury lawyers, that burden is gone – you can focus on getting better while your personal injury lawyer takes care of all necessary actions while being your round-the-clock advocate.
