Do I Have to Retain an Attorney For My Auto Accident Claim?

Motor vehicle accidents occur every day across the U.S., and if you were involved in an injury-inducing accident, you might have a lot of questions as to what you should do next. One question that is likely to be on your mind is whether or not you should retain a car accident attorney when filing your claim. 

For a free legal consultation, call (725) 900-9000

Before we discuss this question in more detail, we must mention that the most trusted personal injury firm in Nevada is standing by to take your call in your moment of need. Van Law Firm has helped countless accident victims recover the compensation they need, and we’re ready to help you too. Call our office nearest you today to get started. 

Debating Whether or Not to Retain a Car Accident Lawyer 

There is no law that requires claimants to retain an attorney when filing a claim, but it is heavily recommended that they do. Make no mistake, auto accident claims can be stressful, lengthy, and complicated, so it’s best to have an experienced  professional working on your behalf to ensure that everything is done right and within compliance. An experienced attorney will help you with every step of the claim process, and they will handle all of the correspondence and negotiation, which can be extremely difficult to do on your own.

In addition, they can also help you contest unfair settlement offers or claims that were denied outright, which you probably will not be able to do by yourself. Attorneys have access to a lot of resources that can help your claim immensely, such as expert witnesses who can be brought in to vouch for your case. Life is stressful enough as it is without having to handle your own legal proceedings, so it’s in your best interest to make the most out of your claim while you have the opportunity, as you will likely not have alternative options for compensation if your claim is unsuccessful.

A good attorney-client relationship that is built on trust and transparency can be very beneficial for all involved. Depending on your claim, you may have to work together for months or even years, so it’s important to connect with an attorney whom you trust. That being said, claimants are not required to keep the same attorney throughout their claim, and they are free to choose a different attorney at just about any point in their claim process so long as they give requisite notice.
