How a Car Accident Lawyer Helps

Insurance companies have an army of lawyers and claims adjusters who do nothing but deal with car accident injury cases. Their job is to get you to accept the smallest settlement possible to save the company money. They are not on your side, no matter how helpful they may seem.

The insurance company may try to get your statement, hoping that you will say something that weakens your claim. They may offer a quick settlement to prevent you from getting more in a lawsuit. They may tell you you don’t need a lawyer.

If you retain an attorney of your own, communication with the insurance company must go through them. That means you don’t have to worry about making an innocent statement that might hurt your case. An experienced car accident lawyer will:

  • Gather and preserve important evidence in your case, including witness testimony
  • Encourage you to get the medical care and evaluation you need
  • Evaluate the value and strength of your case
  • Negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf
  • Fight for you in court if your case must go to trial

Once you have a lawyer on your side, you are no longer alone. You have an experienced advisor and a strong advocate who will protect your rights. But not all lawyers and law firms are created equal.

Why Choose Bernstein & Bernstein

There are a lot of personal injury attorneys in Michigan. The car accident lawyer you choose can make a big difference in the outcome of your case. Here are some of the reasons clients choose Bernstein & Bernstein:

  • Experience. All of our attorneys have decades of experience in injury law. Your case will always be handled by a knowledgeable car accident lawyer.
  • Personal attention. We deliberately maintain a small enough caseload that we can keep all of our clients informed and give them the responsive attention they deserve.
  • Results. Unlike firms whose business model is to carry a high volume of cases, we are not motivated to accept a quick settlement just to resolve a case. We focus on getting you the maximum compensation possible, even if it takes a little more time and effort.

And, of course, you never pay an attorney fee unless we get money for you. The insurance industry’s own research has found that injury victims who are represented by an attorney receive, on average, settlements that are about 3.5 times greater than settlements for claimants without a lawyer.
