Have you ever noticed that accidents come without warning signs? They have a habit of sneaking up and occurring when you least expect them and more importantly, when you are least prepared to deal with them. That’s why it’s important to know who to call when you need help. The time to do your homework and develop a relationship with your personal injury attorney is now. Don’t wait until you need an accident attorney and then have to shop around and find one.

What Is Considered “Personal Injury”?

There are all types of accidents. A personal injury case can be born from any incident where one party is negligent and someone gets hurt as a result. As the injured party, you have the right to seek compensation for pain, suffering, medical expenses and loss of income.
