Do You Need An Attorney After A Car Accident?
Have you been injured? Call or text Hessig & Pohl at 502-777-1111
Often, people where are involved in a car accident in Kentucky wonder what they are supposed to do nest. What if the accident did not seem to be severe? What if there was not much damage? Maybe they could just handle the situation on their own?
Some times an accident is minor and you could possibly handle all the details on your own. However, that is not always true. Car accidents are serious, and people get hurt, cannot pay their medical bills, lose time from work, etc.
How can you know if you need help from an attorney in the aftermath of your accident? It is best to reach out for a consultation with an experienced Louisville, Kentucky car accident attorney at Hessig & Pohl.
For instance, it is likely best to seek an attorney if you or a passenger were injured; if you sustained soft tissue injuries; if the accident involved a cyclist or a pedestrian; if you are unable to go to work because of your injuries; if a doctor suggests it is going to take time for you to recover; if someone died in the accident; or you were involved in a wreck with a drunk driver.
Sometimes, after an accident, the other driver’s insurance company makes you a settlement offer. However, it is in your own best interest to contact a Louisville car accident lawyer to find out if the offer is a fair one. At Hessig & Pohl your first consultation is free. We have decades of experience in dealing with insurance companies and have learned over time that their first course of action is to lowball offers to accident victims to keep their expenses down.
When thinking about accepting an early settlement offer, it is important to consider your injuries and recovery. When an insurance company makes you a settlement offer you need to be aware that what seems to be a minor injury, over the course of time, it may turn out to be far more serious than first thought. If you accept a settlement right off the bat, you cannot go back for more later.
Hessig & Pohl do not quit when you need them the most. They pursue justice to make sure you are taken care of and receive fair and equitable compensation for your injuries. At Hessig & Pohl, we understand the ins and outs of handling car accidents and we take a comprehensive approach to accident investigation. We work with a team of professionals to develop the best strategy to protect your rights and achieve a fair settlement. Call us today for your free consultation at (502) 777-1111.
