Start by confirming the lawyer focuses on personal injury rather than treating it as a side practice. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers weigh whether a firm will actually go to court. Look for knowledge of local courts and the insurers that handle claims in the area. Get the contingency terms in writing, including the percentage and who pays costs. Ask who personally handles your case day to day, and confirm the attorney's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions to compare the local attorneys in our directory before you commit.

Get medical care first, even if you feel fine, since some injuries show up later.
