How Can an Attorney Help Me?
It can be difficult to know who to file a claim against when your accident involves public property. An attorney can guide you through the claims process and help you gather the documentation you need to support a claim.
Your attorney may also be able to save you time and frustration by negotiating an out of court settlement for you. This will get you your money sooner.
What If I Don't Have the Money to Pay for a Legal Representative for My Case?
Most personal injury attorneys will work on contingency so you do not pay a dime unless the attorney gets you a settlement. You do not need to pay any legal fees up front and you will owe nothing if your claim is unsuccessful.
What is Important for Me To Consider When Comparing Attorneys?
You will need to make sure your attorney is licensed to practice law in the state of Wisconsin and you should find an attorney that practices law in the city where you were injured. These attorneys know what the local and county laws are in the area.
Why Do I Need an Attorney to Help Me Submit a Claim?
If you were hit by a public bus while going through an intersection, you may not be exactly sure who to file a claim against. Your attorney will know who the responsible parties are and help you gather the accident reports and medical record necessary to support your claim.
