Who Do I Hire Following an Auto Accident

Hi, I’m Julia McGrath, an attorney here at the Dolman Law Group.  Oftentimes, people ask me, “What kind of attorney do I need after I’ve suffered an injury?” What I tell them is that you need a personal injury attorney. Now there are a lot of attorneys out there that handle criminal law, family law, bankruptcy, but only a personal injury attorney knows how to deal with an insurance company and knows how to maximize the value of your claim.  For more information, call me – Julia McGrath – here at the Dolman Law Group.

One of the most common questions we get from car accident victims is: If I get cited for the accident, can I still sue?

Of course you can. The police officer wasn’t a witness to the accident in most cases, as a result, it doesn’t matter who gets the ticket. The jury decides who should’ve gotten the ticket. Call us with any questions about your car accident claim. I’m Mel Wright, I’m a partner at Colling Gilbert Wright and Carter. Call us at 1-800-49-LEGAL.

How To Successfully Litigate Personal Injury Claim

Hi. I’m Julia McGrath an attorney here at the Dolman Law Group. Often times clients ask me, what do I need to be doing as a client, in order to succeed on my personal injury claim? While we, as the attorney, are investigating the claim and doing the legal research, it’s important that you as a client to fill some of your obligations as well.

Keeping Medical Records

One of those things is keeping fresh with your medical records, and what I mean by that is seeking medical treatment and going to your doctor’s appointment. These appointments and medical records become imperative, in order for us to demonstrate to the insurance company the extent of your injuries and what you should be compensated for. It’s important when you’re meeting with your treating physician to document the extent of your injuries by listing everything that hurts and everything that’s wrong with you. Be thorough in your complaints, so that your doctor can take down all this information and embody it into your medical record for us to use later down the road.

Do You Always Need a Lawyer?

Many people ask that question. The truthful answer is no. There are many cases people can handle on their own. If you only have a few aches and pains after a crash and you fully recover after a few weeks, honestly there’s no need for a lawyer. The insurance company will probably be happy to give you a little money to sign a release. But don’t sign anything until you’re sure you’re okay.

Free Consultations

Well, the simple answer is call us. We never charge to discuss a case; and we’ll be happy to tell you your rights and how you could best protect yourself and your family and whether you need a lawyer or not. No presssure. No conditions. We’re happy to help. I’ll even send you my book Smart Lawyer, Smart Clients: What to do in Case of a Car Crash for free.  I’m Evan Fetterman. If you need legal help, call me.

Orlando Auto Accident Caused By Malfunctioning Traffic Light

If your car accident was due to a malfunctioning traffic light in the state of Florida, we look at the municipality responsible for maintaining that light. Once a city or town puts up a traffic light, they have a responsibility to maintain that in a good working order; in a good working fashion. If that traffic light fails and an accident happens, then we’ll look at the municipality as the possible defendant in your case. So, give me a call. I’m Ron Gilbert – Colling, Gilbert, Wright & Carter, 1-800-49-LEGAL.

How Much Is My Case Worth?

Hi, I’m Matt Dolman of the Dolman Law Group. I’m a Clearwater civil trial attorney. A question I’m often faced with is, how much is my case worth? And the context I’m going to answer this question in is for an individual that was just in an auto accident. Keep in mind that the value of a case is based on a number of criteria. How much insurance is available? How big was the impact in terms of the collision itself? Was there a lot of property damage? Do you have prior injuries going into the accident? What are your pre-existing injuries, and was there an aggravation or exacerbation of your prior symptoms? Are you going to need future medical are?

Determining Case Value

Any attorney or legal assistant or paralegal or anyone that tells you how much your case is worth before you commence medical treatment, and seriously, before you have gone through a long period of medical treatment where we can ascertain what your future medical costs will be, is simply blowing smoke. They’re lying to you. The only way you can tell what the value of a case is, is based on the criteria we already spoke of. When you first are in an automobile accident, you’re not going to know what your injuries really are. They could be catastrophic, they could be minor, but until there’s a passage of time, we don’t know if these injuries will alleviate themselves. Will they heal? And what will be the permanent ramifications, if any?
