How Our Fairfax Accident Lawyers Can Help

Before you call a personal injury lawyer, you probably want to know what they are going to do and how they will help you. Naturally, you want to ensure that hiring an attorney is the right thing to do and worth the potential fee.

• To begin with, a Fairfax personal injury attorney will thoroughly investigate the accident that led to your injuries or loved one’s death. We will gather evidence, such as photos and videos of the accident, police reports, documentation, the other party’s records, physical objects, and eye witness testimony. Depending on the complexity of your case and injuries, we also may obtain expert witnesses’ opinions.
• After we gather and analyze the evidence to determine both fault and liability, we start the insurance claim process. At Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, we handle all communication with the insurance company. You do not have to worry about receiving and sending paperwork or fielding an adjuster’s phone calls.
• We also may recommend filing a lawsuit for personal injuries or wrongful death. During a lawsuit, we can utilize the discovery phase to obtain more evidence. This is particularly important when the at-fault or liability party is a business, such as a trucking company. We will want to request business records that may be pertinent to the accident.
• While all of this is going on, we will work closely with your and your physicians to calculate your damages. If another person’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct caused you harm, then you have the right to pursue both economic and non-economic damages. These include your medical expenses, lost income, physical pain and suffering, emotional distress, and compensation for any disfigurement or disability.
• Once we have established the other party’s liability and determined the fair value of your damages, we will demand a settlement from the insurance company. We will participate in pre-litigation settlement negotiations in hopes that we can obtain you the maximum amount of compensation possible without heading to trial.
• Another way to obtain a settlement may be through an alternative dispute resolution method. ADR may consist of mediation or arbitration. We will actively participate in mediation or arbitration if you or the other party requests it.

However, if the settlement negotiations break down or the insurance company denies your claim, then we may recommend moving forward with the personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit. If you agree to this, we will prepare for trial. At trial, the judge or jury will decide whether the other party was negligent and is liable for your injuries. If the jury decides in your favor, it also will decide how much compensation you should receive.
