Injury can strike at any time. One example was particularly
heart-wrenching and came at a time when a client was in great need. With money
already low due to other financial concerns over job-loss, then accident added
insult to injury. With that in mind, it was with great surprise that our client
learned that she would be able to recover damages for her medical costs, but
could also recover what she lost by not being able to work. This loss of work
is something that many do not calculate into their entire equation for how they
are affected by an accident.
Another concept that is often foreign to victims of large
truck accidents revolves around the fact that they are often put out of
commission for long periods of time for treatment. As a result, they get behind
on more than just the bills for getting better. These bills include things like
rent, mortgage payments, cost of a car payment, food and clothing expenses for
their family and children, and much more. When a person is put behind the
eight-ball in this manner, it can cause the situation to be compounded because
of the nature of late fees and other repercussions building up. As a result,
often clients are put in a position where their actual home is in jeopardy,
they worry about losing a vehicle, and much more. They could be forced into
bankruptcy as a result of something that was completely out of their own
control and become financially destitute.
That is where a good attorney comes in. Many injury attorneys will
take any case that comes through their door. The nature of the business is such
that law firms are hungry for business and will be willing to compromise on
standards of integrity or smart business. When a law firm operates
successfully, this means that they have to use principles of discipline in their
legal services. By doing this, they are more stable and can in turn help you be
more stable in your recovery. You would not want to hire someone who is
disorganized or lazy or wants to find short cuts on how they run their
business. In same fashion, we seek to provide the best overall service for your
situation and are willing to do the hard things to make it happen properly.
