What an Attorney Does for Your Injury Case
Insurers handle legal claims every single day. Their adjusters handle claims every single day. They know the tactics they can use to get unrepresented individuals to accept far less than they deserve. An experienced injury attorney, who also handles claims every day, will make sure that doesn’t happen to you.
Your legal team will take over various tasks; they will:
- Investigate the crash scene and recreate the sequence of events.
- Obtain statements from witnesses that can corroborate your version of events.
- Track your ongoing medical treatment and document all damages.
- Calculate the full scope of future economic losses.
- Handle all communications directly with the insurance carrier.
- File suit and take your claim to trial if necessary.
While you focus on recovering, your legal team handles the technical aspects of your case.
How Shared Fault Affects Your Injury Claim
Insurers frequently allege that crash victims share blame for an accident. The law has an answer for this.
Under Nebraska's modified comparative negligence law, you may obtain compensation as long as your responsibility remains below 50 percent, with your total recovery adjusted by your assigned fault percentage. For instance, if losses equal $80,000 and you are deemed 25 percent responsible, you would receive $60,000. Your recovery is only barred if your level of fault hits 50 percent or higher.
Our accident attorneys can challenge unfounded claims of fault and protect your right to full compensation.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
We take injury cases on a contingency fee arrangement. You pay nothing upfront, and our fee comes directly as a portion of the money we recover for you. We also guarantee that your net recovery will exceed our fee, even after resolving medical bills.
