another persons negligent actions? Well, you can
start by getting properly informed. Every person

A Personal Injury Case The Basics

• When someone is injured by another person, the
  victim may be eligible to file a personal injury
  lawsuit if they can prove that it was the other
  partys faulty actions that caused the accident
  in the first place. Without proving negligence,
  there is no case. So right after the accident,
  speak with a Cleveland Personal Injury Lawyers
  and receive a free case evaluation. Once that is
  done, you will know what to do next.
• Usually, if there is evidence to back up your
  story, your attorney will file a claim on your
  behalf and help you obtain compensation for your

Medical bills
Lost wages
Pain and suffering

However, if there is no evidence, your attorney
will have to conduct an investigation (or hire a
professional who will do it instead) to find
supporting evidence for your case. Once
negligence is proven, the case is yours.

Insurance Company Is Not On Your Side
Every insurance companys only interests are
protecting their own shareholders, collecting as
many premiums as possible and protecting their
own interests. What that means is that they are
not your friends, and will never be. Regardless
of how friendly they may seem or how much they
are happy and willing to help you, in reality,
they will try anything possible to reduce their
costs and give you as little as possible in
return. Without a personal injury attorney, you
will most likely end up collecting a smaller
compensation, which will not even cover all your
current medical costs. That is a mistake that you
cannot afford to make.

It Takes Time To Settle
Contrary to what most people believe, settling
with the insurance company is not as easy as it
seems. The process can be long and exhausting,
and not everyone has the time to wait. However,
with the right attorney, everything can be sped
up. That is why you should get contact with

the accident, and speed up the process of
obtaining compensation for your injuries as much
as possible.
