How to choose a lawyer in Anderson

Start with a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles injury claims occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers negotiate differently when a case may go to court. Look for knowledge of local courts and the insurers that handle claims in the area. Get clear contingency terms in writing, including the percentage and who pays case costs. Ask who personally handles your case day to day, and confirm the lawyer's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys in our directory, and pick the one whose answers you trust.

What to do after an accident in Anderson

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 with everyone involved. Avoid admitting fault and do not give a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, bills, and time missed from work. Then act promptly: Indiana has a filing deadline of 2 years from the date of injury, so waiting can cost you the right to recover. A local attorney can review your situation and explain the next steps.
