OK so you got in a car accident now what? Should you call a car wreck attorney or not? That is a very good question and one that needs to be addressed. Before I start let me tell you that this you should not be afraid to call a lawyer if you think you might need help. It is better to get help sooner than later, after you have a big mess on your hands.
You should call a attorney if:
- There were serious injuries that lead to hospitalization
- You suffer permanent injuries that result in emotional pain and missed work
- When there are other vehicles involved in the accident or pedestrians.
- When nobody admits responsibility
- Disagree with police report that puts the blame on you
- Need help with medical, legal or technical issues.
- When there are problems with your insurance such as unpaid premiums.
- When seeking advice or needing help with paperwork
- Your claim is denied by the insurance company
- You are sued by the other party involved in the accident
- Need help with complicated facts and circumstances.
- Disagreement with insurance company
As you can see there are many reasons to contact a car wreck attorney. However you don't always need to contact a lawyer. You wont need a lawyer if the accident is a small fender bender, if one of the parties involved admits responsibility and medical bills are of not much value. You also don't need a lawyer if you are satisfied with the insurance companies settlement. However If you need help or are unsure about anything involving the case you should call a
car wreck attorney.
