Choosing a Construction Accident Attorney

Answer:

The other day, we received a call concerning a very serious, life-altering construction accident that happened in Dallas. They wanted to know how to hire the best lawyer for their injury claim. When making this decision, there are four things that you should ask. The first thing that you should ask is if the lawyer you’re talking to is a personal injury trial lawyer. That means that the lawyer handles nothing but personal injury trial cases — not divorces, bankruptcies, or family law. The other thing is if the lawyer has had success in handling these kinds of cases. They should be able to show or talk to you about their cases and the results they have obtained.

The third thing is to make sure they are a trial lawyer. A trial lawyer will go to court and stand before a judge and jury to fight for your case. Finally, you’ll want to know if they are a board-certified trial lawyer. This means that the state has recognized them as being a lawyer who is knowledgeable in that area of law. Only the top 3% of the lawyers in the state have that certification. Those are the four main things that you should always ask. If you have any other questions that you feel that you may have, please feel free to call our office.
