How to choose a lawyer in Cambridge

Start by choosing a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers treat that seriously. Confirm the lawyer knows the local courts and the insurers you may deal with. Get the contingency terms in writing: what percentage the lawyer takes and who pays case costs. Ask who personally handles your case day to day. Finally, check the lawyer's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys listed in our directory, and pick the one whose answers give you confidence.

What to do after an accident in Cambridge

After an accident in Cambridge, put safety first and get medical care even if you feel fine. Document the scene and your injuries with photos and notes, and exchange and gather information from everyone involved and any witnesses. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, bills, and lost work. Vermont has a filing deadline of 3 years from the date of injury, so acting promptly matters and delays can cost you the right to recover. Once you have taken these steps, a local attorney can review your situation.
