There's still plenty more that an experienced, Board-Certified personal injury attorney can and should take care of for you and your personal injury claim, including:
Getting information from the client's medical care providers regarding the client's condition in order to understand it fully.
Reviewing the client's health insurance policy or welfare benefit plan to see if money spent by the insurance company to pay your medical bills needs to be repaid.
Checking over the validity of any liens on the client's case. (You may find that doctors, employers, and insurance companies will assert that they are entitled to a portion of the client's recovery.)
Contacting the insurance company to give notice of the claim, if that has not already been done by the client.
Helping the client decide about an attempt to negotiate a settlement with the insurance company or whether a suit should be filed. (If suit is filed, an experienced, Board-Certified personal injury attorney will prepare the client, witnesses and healthcare providers for depositions.)
