Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Attorney

asking questions to a personal injury lawyer

An accident—especially one that results in an injury—can be an incredibly stressful event. Sometimes, tragically, the result of an accident can be life-changing. While the decision to consider and hire a personal injury attorney to represent you is a highly personal decision, it is important to consider a variety of questions to ensure that you are hiring the best lawyers for your needs. The following are our top questions to ask a personal injury attorney:

  1. What kind of experience do you have handling cases that are similar to mine?
  2. How much of your legal practice involves personal injury cases?
  3. How many personal injury cases have you settled?
  4. What is your success rate in personal injury cases?
  5. How do you determine how much a personal injury case is worth?
  6. How do you typically communicate with clients?
  7. How long will it take for my case to settle?
  8. What fees do you charge?
  9. What happens if my case goes to trial?
  10. Can you provide references from former clients?

If you have any other questions about an attorney’s background, other experience, and approach to handling personal injury cases, be sure to ask the attorney during a consultation. By asking these questions and any other concerns that you have before hiring an attorney, you will have the best understanding of the attorney’s qualifications and be able to confidently choose whether they are the right fit for your case. But winning a case is about more than just knowing the right questions to ask a personal injury attorney.
