TOP FIVE QUALITIES OF A GREAT PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY

FIVE QUALITIES OF TOP PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEYS IN CALIFORNIA

1QUALITY #1: HonestyHonesty is an absolute essential quality of a good accident lawyer. Why?If a lawyer doesnt tell you the good and bad aspects of your claim, you will have no way of knowing whether the settlement value is fair or whether proceeding to trial is in your best interest.If an attorney makes grandiose promises in the beginning of the case that he or she later cannot deliver upon, you are not going to be happy with the result.If you have legal counsel that engages in dishonest practices like sending people to your hospital or home to solicit your case, do you really think he is going to be honest with you when it comes time to resolve the claim and disburse your portion of the settlement or will this lack of integrity end up costing you in the end?2QUALITY #2: CompassionCompassion is crucial if you are truly in the business of helping people and not simply in it for the money. If a lawyer doesnt truly understand his clients struggles, he or she will never be able to truly communicate what the claim is worth. BUT, where does compassion come from?Communication With The Client: Is your lawyer willing to come to your home, sit down with your family and talk about what happened to you and truly understand what youve been through?Having Walked A Mile In Your Shoes: Do you have a lawyer who has experienced struggle and heartache in his own life and knows, firsthand, the pain it causes?

3Quality #3: CreativityCreativity is a quintessential component of the lawyer mindset for accident and injury claims. Each time someone is injured, recovery of monetary compensation is dependent upon proving another person or business should be legally liable, determining how to ascertain and present the clients damages in a way that maximizes their value, and finding sources of payment. Where does creativity in the practice of personal injury law stem from?Having a lawyer that is not only book smart, but, street smartHiring legal counsel with years of experience investigating claims and getting the bottom of the issues essential to maximum recovery.4Quality #4: TenacityTenacity , simply defined is persistence in the face of adversity. Every personal injury claim is an uphill battle. There are forces at work in the form of huge multi-billion dollar insurance companies who want nothing more than to eliminate or reduce the payouts on accident claims. If you dont have an advocate in your corner who will go the extra mile every time, who will never quit until they know that they have turned over every stone and battled every aspect of your claim, you will never receive every penny that can and should be paid out to you.Where does tenacity come from? It comes from having a lawyer that pulled himself up by his bootstraps to become an attorney and has spent many years proving he will always fight the good fight!5QUALITY #5: Personal AttentionPersonal attention to each and every client is essential to proper legal representation in a personal injury claim. There are far too many law firms saturating the air waves with messages that they are tough and they are going to fight for you but, when you call You end up talking to the assistant or paralegal and not an attorneyThe only interaction the lawyer has with your file is to look it over when it comes time to settle the caseA lawyer only speaks to you at the end of the case to convince you that this is a good deal. That lawyer has never spoken to you directly and has no idea what youve been through.A law firm that isnt running a mill just churning out files for whatever they can get and moving on the next one. One that sees you as a person and not a number!
