Serious injuries deserve experienced attorneys

Personal Injury Lawyer Potomac, MD

As a Potomac, MD personal injury lawyer understands, you may be facing a big decision when it comes to your personal injury claim. Though you may have decided to pursue filing a claim, you may not be won over by the idea of hiring a lawyer. Our team at Cohen & Cohen knows that this is a big decision. When you are ready to move forward with your personal injury claim, it is important to consider whether you want to work with a lawyer before you get started. While you can change your mind throughout the process and choose to work with a lawyer when you are already working on your claim, it makes the most sense to work with one starting from the beginning. So, how do you know if you should work on your injury claim with the help of a lawyer?

Are there times I don’t need a lawyer?

There will be times when it may not make financial sense to hire a lawyer. That doesn’t mean a lawyer wouldn’t get you a good outcome, it just means you may be savvy enough to get the outcome you want as well. For example, if you got into a minor car accident, had minor injuries, had evidence, police reports, and medical records on your side, it may be a fairly simple case. You may find it most efficient if you are not expecting a large settlement and if things are straightforward.

What if I’m not sure what to do?

If you are concerned that you will not be able to defend yourself or are concerned that you would not do well negotiating with insurance agents, this is completely reasonable. Insurance agents know that you are most vulnerable following an accident and they are more than willing to use this against you with a claim. There will be times when the best thing you can do for yourself after an accident is to work with a lawyer. This might be when:

Your injuries are not minor. If you are dealing with more serious injuries and realize that you are owed a bigger settlement, it is time to seek help from a lawyer. Your Potomac personal injury lawyer will know when to advise you to wait on a better settlement offer and when you should accept the one you have.
You are eligible for pain and suffering damages. It can be difficult to know if you are entitled to pain and suffering and how much that would be worth. Without the help of a lawyer, you may be willing to settle your claim without these damages, not even knowing you are missing out. A lawyer can review everything that happened and ensure that they are fighting for all the compensation you deserve.

What if I began the process for a personal injury claim?

Unless you have already accepted a settlement offer, if you choose to hire a personal injury lawyer, you should contact us today. Your lawyer can review your case with you, see how far you are in the negotiating process, and determine the best next steps. It is crucial that you call us so that you can get help as soon as possible. When you are ready to move forward with a Potomac personal injury lawyer, contact Cohen & Cohen today.

To say that I am happy with the outcome of my case is the understatement of the century! Jill Stanley is a BEAST at what she does. That is the only way to explain it. She takes no prisoners. She and her team are very skilled and knowledgeable. I am so happy I trusted them to do their job and rolled with Jill's suggestions. I would choose Jill again 100 times. She settled my case for more than I imagined I would receive. I was literally in tears. It is the best feeling to know my pain isn't for naught. Wayne Cohen and Kristopher Yorke were nothing short of amazing. They have the patience of saints. I'm 100% certain that I got on their last nerves with my frustration and tears at every other call I had with them. Being in pain and wanting to just be able to heal was all I could focus on, but they helped me realize that I also had to focus on the bigger picture (the case) so I could put this piece behind me. As a high-strung individual with anxiety, it was hard for me to not worry and let them do their jobs, but they reassured me all of the time that they had this. To be injured before the start of the pandemic and have to receive regular, weekly treatment while others are able to stay home is anxiety inducing. I was in pain, I was anxious, and I was just hoping it all worked out. It more than worked out. I hope Jill, Siri, and Kris know how much their hard work and "hanging in there" meant to me. I am eternally grateful. I can't recommend you all enough. If you choose this law firm, you won't be sorry!

I had a great experience with the team at Cohen & Cohen. From my intake attorney, Adam, to the paralegal, Bryan, who worked with me regularly for months to document and prepare my case, to Jill, the attorney who secured my settlement, I feel fortunate to have had their representation and expertise on my side.
