Find the Right Memphis TN Personal Injury Attorney / Lawyer For You
During the initial consultation, a personal injury lawyer gathers the facts surrounding the injury from the client to determine all the parties who may be at fault for the injury. The personal injury attorney will work to make sure the client has their immediate and extended medicals needs taken care of. The attorney will then work on the liability aspect of the case. Personal Injury liability can be settled by negotiating an out of court settlement or by civil trial. The personal injury attorney will often hire expert witnesses to help prove the extent of the injuries or the liability of the parties involved. Personal injury lawyers usually work on a contingency basis, meaning if you win they receive a percentage of the settlement award as their fee, however if lose, they do not receive any attorney fees. Remember that a contingency fee is only for attorney fees. Most PI cases have costs other than attorney fees that will also need to be paid for with or without a settlement.
