Brisbane & Gold Coast Personal Injury Lawyers explain how to decide the best personal injury lawyer for your personal injury claim. No Win No Fee Lawyers offering FREE legal advice to Qld 24/7 & providing no win no fee services throughout Qld, with offices in Brisbane & on the Gold Coast
When you’re injured through the fault of another, then you want to be certain you’re getting the best personal injury lawyers for your personal injury claim. Afterall, your injury compensation will need to last you into the future to meet ongoing medical expenses, the cost of engaging care and assistance, and to compensate when your capacity to earn income has reduced because of your injuries.
How Do You Decide the Best Personal Injury Lawyers for Your Case?
So, how do you decide who the best personal injury lawyer is to run your personal injury claim? The first thing you need to look at is experience. Like anything, practice makes perfect. Personal Injury Lawyers with long experience specialising in personal injury claims is one of the most important factors you need to consider when engaging a personal injury lawyer.
Look for a Personal Injury Lawyer with Experience & a History of Successful Claims Handling
Quality of experience is also important. A lawyer who appears experienced on paper, may not have a history of successful claims handling. For example, they may have never run a successful trial, or they may have lost 7 trials in a row, and yet tell you they are a highly qualified and experienced personal injury lawyer. Another may have never run a trial, but tells you they have been handling personal injury claims for 10 years. So, enquire not only of their experience, but ask also about the extent of that experience and their success rate in handling claims.
No Win No Fee Personal Injury Lawyers is headed up by a Senior Personal Injury Lawyer with experience on both sides of the argument. Having the experience of previously representing and working for major insurers in the industry, provides a unique insight into how personal injury claims are successfully run. She has also successfully run many trials over her long experience. To learn more of our success rate, which we are not permitted to advise you in this article due to legislative restrictions, go to the following link: Palmers Compensation Lawyers (No Win No Fee Personal Injury Lawyers is a division of Palmers Compensation Lawyers).
Expertise in the Area of Personal Injury Law is Important
Secondly, look at specialisation in the area of personal injury law. This is also important. The law of personal injuries is a very complex area, with a minefield of legislation. Having lawyers that have specialty knowledge of the area & a complete understanding of personal injury law is imperative. No Win No Fee Personal Injury Lawyers is a 100% focused personal injury law firm. Our Principal has been handling personal injury claims for 30 years, and specialising in this area for over 20 years. There is nothing we don’t know about personal injury law.
What Services are on Offer? Are they No Win No Fee Lawyers? Are there No Upfront Costs?
Thirdly, look at the services being offered. Are they offering a no win no fee service? No win no fee services are a necessity for most claimants because they don’t have the funds to finance their personal injury claim until they receive their compensation. No win no fee services are offered by many personal injury firms, but look carefully at the services being proffered. Your legal fees may be deferred until the end of your claim, but are you required to pay up-front costs? If you don’t recover compensation, will you be required to pay your solicitor for outlays incurred in your case?
No Win No Fee Personal Injury Lawyers offer you a complete no win no fee service. We run your claim for you and we don’t require payment of our legal fees, or any outlays involved in the running of your claim, until you receive your compensation payment. And payment is only required if you receive a compensation payment. If we don’t get you compensation for your claim, then you pay us nothing at all.
What Other Services Do they Offer ? Do they Offer After Hours Service ? A 24 Hour Legal Advisory Service?
Other services you should investigate are such things as what access do you have to the legal services. Is there access to services outside normal business hours? Will your claim be handled by an experienced personal injury lawyer or a paralegal? Are you going to be paying for a personal injury lawyer, but your claim is being run by a paralegal?
At No Win No Fee Personal Injury Lawyers, your claim is run by a Senior Personal Injury Lawyer, not a paralegal. And we offer our legal services outside business hours, if that best suits you. We also offer a 24/7 FREE legal advisory service, which can be accessed by phone, email, Livechat and request forms on our website, at any time, day or night. This is a unique service that we provide.
How Are Legal Fees Calculated at the End of your Personal Injury Claim?
Fourthly and finally, look at how legal fees will be charged at the end of your case. You are entitled to full disclosure of how a firm will charge you for handling your personal injury claim. In fact, in Queensland, it is a legal requirement for a personal injury law firm that speculates its legal fees (offers no win no fee services), to provide a Disclosure Notice, explaining how legal fees and outlays will be charged when the personal injury claim is completed.
No Win No Fee Personal Injury Lawyers pride ourselves on the reasonableness of our fee structure. If you’re interested in engaging our services for your personal injury claim, we are more than happy to provide you with a copy of our Standard Costs Agreement and Disclosure Notice explaining how our legal fees work and are calculated at the end of your claim. And you can also read about how we calculate our legal fees on our website.
