How to choose a lawyer in Jefferson

Start by looking for a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than handling it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers often treat cases differently when they know an attorney is willing to go to court. Find out how well the lawyer knows the local courts and the insurers that handle claims in the area. Get the contingency terms in writing, including the percentage and who pays case costs. Ask who will personally handle your case day to day. Finally, check the attorney's standing with the State Bar. Use our directory to compare local attorneys on these points before you decide.

What to do after an accident in Jefferson

Get medical care first, even if you feel fine, because some injuries show up later. Document the scene and your injuries with photos and notes, and exchange and gather information from anyone involved. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, bills, and time missed from work. Then act promptly: Arkansas has a filing deadline of 3 years from the date of injury, so waiting can cost you the right to recover. A local attorney can explain your options and help you protect your claim while the details are still fresh.
