Do I Need to Hire a Car Accident Lawyer After Sustaining an Injury?

Posted on by Law Offices of Richard M. Kenny

If you’ve recently been hurt in a car accident or any other type of auto accident and it wasn’t your fault, you most likely now require financial compensation to help you recover from your injuries. You may consider bringing your personal injury claim on your own and without the help of an attorney, but this is a mistake, for a number of reasons. Please continue reading and contact a skilled Bronx car accident lawyer from The Law Office of Richard M. Kenny to learn more about how hiring a car accident lawyer can benefit you in the long run.

Why hire a personal injury lawyer after being hurt in a car accident?

Just some of the most important reasons why you should always proceed with a competent car accident lawyer in your corner are as follows:

  • Your physical recovery is the most important thing. If you’ve been injured, our firm can get you to the right medical specialists.
  • By hiring an attorney, you ensure that you won’t miss any critical deadlines, such as the statute of limitations for filing your personal injury claim, which, in Texas, is typically two years.
  • Insurance companies will frequently offer those who’ve been hurt lowball settlements that don’t reflect the economic and non-economic damages they’ve sustained. An attorney can negotiate with insurance companies to attain a favorable settlement on your behalf.
  • In the event that the insurance company refuses to offer a sufficient settlement, a skilled attorney can take your case to trial and fight for the maximum compensation to which you are entitled.

The bottom line is that having an attorney in your corner can make a world of a difference. Here at the Law Office of Richard M. Kenny, we pride ourselves on our knowledge in the field and dedication to each of our clients’ well-being. If you’ve been hurt, you can feel confident in your decision to turn to us for legal assistance.
