How do I find a personal injury lawyer?

Finding a lawyer at the best of times isn’t easy. Trying to find a personal injury lawyer after you’ve been injured, only adds to the difficulty.

Here are a few tips:

Specialization

Look for a lawyer who specializes in personal injury, not a lawyer who, for example, practices tax law, or real estate. Personal injury law is a highly specialized area and you will be best served by someone who knows it well.

Personal Connection

Personal injury claims can take time to resolve. You will spend at least some of that time with your lawyer. As such, you’ll want to hire a lawyer you get along with.

That said, keep in mind that not all lawyers are “people persons”, and the traits that make them good lawyers can also make them less than personable.

Fees

Litigation is expensive. Be clear from the outset as to how your case will be financed. Here at “Mullowney’s Law” we offer a number of financing options, including “contingency fee based retainers”, where you don’t pay until we succeed in resolving your claim.
