Do not gamble on an attorney. Accidents do happen but choosing an attorney should not be an accident. Choose a lawyer who has the experience, the expertise, the sheer competence, the knowledge, the skill and, above all, the fighting spirit – one who not only knows the law but also will believe in you and your claim – to vigorously and enthusiastically pursue your claim. Select a lawyer who understands how insurance companies investigate, process, litigate and/or ultimately settle personal injury claims. If you want to have brain surgery, my goodness, go to a brain surgeon!
