The Intake Process for Car Accident Litigation

A lawyer who is experienced in car accident litigation will be able to help you determine the worth of your case and the amount of settlement you can receive. But it is only possible if you have all the information needed.

The initial step in a car crash lawsuit is called discovery. In this phase, attorneys and their teams exchange documents and discuss their respective cases under an oath.

Documentation

Documentation is a significant component of an accident. This could include evidence such as photographs, medical records, or witness statements. The more documentation that you have, the more convincing your case will be.

A police report is the first document you need. The police officer who arrives at the scene will typically prepare a report. This will provide valuable details about the incident and who was responsible.

If required, your attorney can use the police report to gather additional evidence. For instance, if an incident occurred in a business the employee who worked at that area may have recorded footage of the incident. If this is the case, you should request a copy from the business.

Note any costs you have incurred in the aftermath of the accident. Document all expenses you have incurred as a result of. This could include medical expenses or records of treatment, receipts from medication rental car fees, in-home assistance or care expenses for transportation, and more. It is important to record any income lost due to your injury. This could include old pay stubs, as well as tax returns.

You should also try to find the names of witnesses. These people can serve as valuable sources of information for your case, particularly if they are able to give evidence at trial. But, it's important to remember that witnesses are prone to altering their accounts over time, and could forget specific details about the accident.

Intake and Investigation

If you have made a claim with an insurance firm or are beginning a lawsuit against an at-fault driver, the initial intake process is crucial to getting the full and fair amount of compensation for the injuries you sustained in a crash. Your attorney will begin by examining your medical records, and obtaining copies of accident reports, as well as other evidence. They will also visit the site of the crash to observe and document what they can.

This will help them know the extent of your injuries both in terms of future and anticipated costs for your physical and emotional suffering. They will then analyze your financial losses to estimate the value of your case. The damages could include not only current and future medical expenses, but also lost income and property damage.

Your lawyer will also investigate the incident, including speaking with witnesses and analyzing all available evidence. They will also take the driver who was at fault and their driving phone records to determine how they were using their vehicle at the time of the collision. This is particularly crucial if the crash involved an Uber or Lyft vehicle or any other indicator that the driver was working, as this could negatively impact their ability to cover your damages.

As part of the process of discovery, your lawyer will also inquire about the defendant's traffic and criminal conviction records. These details are typically not admissible but could be used to undermine the credibility of the defendant during cross-examination.

The process of negotiating a settlement

Once you have the medical records, it is possible to start settlement negotiations. Initially the insurance company will offer an offer which is usually substantially lower than the amount you requested in your letter. This is a tactic to assess how strong your case is. In your counteroffer it is important to highlight the strongest arguments to your advantage. For example, the insurer was responsible and that there were serious injuries and high medical costs. Eventually, negotiations back and forth will result in an amount that is fair and reasonable.

An experienced auto accident lawyer lawyer can effectively argue your claim's merits by presenting evidence to justify your losses. This may include photos of the damage to your car or a police report, as well as witness testimony. We have the ability to calculate various elements of your claim such as loss of income as well as pain and suffering, and police report.

If the insurance company refuses to pay a reasonable amount at the moment, we can start a lawsuit. A trial usually lasts between one and two days, and is heard either by jurors or a judge. If your case is settled before this stage it could take several months. In addition, your attorney might be eligible to file a motion for summary judgment. This is a way of claiming that all evidence is in your favor, and arguing that it's impossible for the opponent to prevail.
