When an individual is injured due to the negligence of another party, it is important that they meet with an experienced personal injury attorney to discuss their options. At the initial consultation, the attorney will be able to listen to what happened and how the accident impacted your life. In addition, the attorney will be able to inform you as to whether or not you may have a valid personal injury lawsuit. A successful lawsuit can allow individuals to recover compensation for both economic and noneconomic damages. It is important that you do try and bring the attorney as much information as you can about your accident and injuries so they can truly give you an idea of what to expect.
Some of the information that you should bring to the first meeting with the attorney includes the contact information of any witnesses to the accident, your insurance company, your doctors, and any other contacts that you believe might be helpful.

In addition, you will need to bring a significant amount of documentation to the meeting. First, gather any photographs that you have from the accident and of your injuries. You should also bring any medical records regarding your injuries, what they did to fix your injuries, and what the prognosis is. It is also very important that you bring documentation of the expenses that these injuries caused you to incur so the attorney will know how much to request from the other side.
