When Should You Hire A Car Accident Attorney?
For most minor fender-benders, hiring a lawyer really is not necessary if no one is hurt. However, if anyone was injured it is a different story, especially if anyone loses time from work, school, or other obligations. In that case you will want to look into hiring a lawyer to represent your interests against the person who caused the crash.
Car Crash or Accident Attorneys Help You Get Proper Compensation
Wisconsin is a traditional “fault” state when it comes to insurance claims. The driver who is deemed to be at fault and his or her insurance company are responsible for all damages. This can be tricky to determine. If there is a dispute over whose fault the accident was, or if the accident was partially your fault, you might get less or even no compensation for your injuries and/or time off work. You definitely want car accident attorneys on your side.
You should also take into account the extent of your out-of-pocket expenses. There are medical expenses and co-payments, medications, and lost wages to consider.
Trying to recover that money by yourself is extremely difficult and time-consuming. Naturally, the insurance company will not want to pay you what you deserve, and the insurance company’s lawyers will be fighting tooth and nail to defend them. Do you really want to try fighting them on your own?
