PERSONAL INJURY CASE INFORMATION
FREE EVALUATION
If you have been injured in an accident that was not your fault, you are entitled to financial compensation for your pain and suffering, medical bills, lost wages and property damage. I have extensive experience and training in cases involving vehicular accidents and I help insure that my clients are fairly compensated for their injuries. I will gladly evaluate your injury case for free. If I do accept your case, it is because I honestly believe you are legally entitled to financial compensation for your injuries.
INJURY NOT SERIOUS?
Even if your injuries are not serious, you still may be entitled to financial compensation. Many of my clients have been compensated for minor injuries, such as bruises, cuts, scrapes and whiplash. I take all injury cases seriously and so should you.
CAN IS USE MY HEALTH INSURANCE TO GET MEDICAL TREATMENT?
Yes, you can. When you go to a hospital or doctor after your accident, use your health insurance card like you would for any other doctor visit. Your health insurance company must cover your medical treatment as long as you have been paying your premiums and you pay your deductibles and co-pays. However, you need to make sure that the doctor or hospital accepts your type of health insurance, or you could be on the hook for those bills.
If you pay any medical bills out of your own pocket (such as a co-pay), you need to keep the receipt. That way, your attorney can make sure you get reimbursed by the auto insurance company for your payments.
Some health insurance policies have a right to be reimbursed for their expenses and will seek compensation from any legal settlement that you reach. Your attorney will know if your insurance company has a right to reimbursement and can make sure they get compensated from any settlement.
WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE?
It can be very difficult for people who don't have health insurance to get the medical treatment they need. Usually, people without insurance will have to pay out of pocket for their doctor or hospital visits. However, those expenses can later be reimbursed by the auto insurance company in a settlement agreement. That is why it is important to always keep your receipts.
Also, there are some doctors who will treat you using a "medical lien." That means that you don't have to pay them immediately, but you will owe them the money. If your case eventually settles, your attorney will make sure the doctor gets paid back for the lien, and you won't be on the hook for the money. You should talk to an attorney regarding this issue.
ACT QUICKLY
It is important that you contact an attorney immediately after you have been injured. The longer you wait, the harder it is for your attorney to prove that your injury was caused by the accident and not by something you did to yourself.
