Before You Call a Personal Injury Lawyer...Read This

Tom Herren & Chuck Adams
Tom Herren & Chuck Adams

Why should you choose Herren & Adams to handle your personal injury case? The short answer is that we are prepared to take every case to trial. Over the last 15 years, Tom Herren and Chuck Adams have tried many plaintiff's accident/injury cases in Central Kentucky. Why is this important? Because some lawyers advertise heavily to attract a large volume of cases with little or no intention of taking any of them to trial. Some cases can and should be settled quickly. However, in order to maximize your financial recovery, most cases have to be developed and the insurance company must know that the case will be tried if it offers less than fair compensation. Insurance companies know who the real trial lawyers are. If you have a serious injury case, don't sell it short by choosing your lawyer based upon advertisements rather than courtroom success.

So what are the key factors to consider before hiring a lawyer for your personal injury case? First, experience. Ask any prospective lawyer how many cases like yours they've tried and how many they've tried recently. If your case involves a drunk driver, ask how many drunk driving cases they've tried. If your case involves a brain injury or paralysis, ask specifically about brain injury trials or trials involving paralysis. If you were hurt by a tractor-trailer or other large truck, ask the lawyer for their experience in trying trucking cases. If you have a dispute with an insurance company, ask how many insurance bad faith cases they've tried. Again, if you have a serious personal injury case, there is no substitute for previous courtroom success.

What else is important in comparing law firms for personal injury cases? Make sure you understand which lawyer in the firm will actually handle your injury case and that lawyer's level of trial experience. With some law firms that advertise heavily, you may never meet the lawyer whose name you have seen or heard so often. In reality, your case may be handled by a lawyer with very little trial experience, or even worse, by a paralegal.

It's important to determine what type of lawyer or law firm you are really dealing with. Many lawyers attempt to practice accident/injury cases as a sideline. Most of their clients may be criminal defendants or have other legal issues like divorce, bankruptcy or real estate. Some larger law firms generally represent insurance companies and those who have caused accidents and injuries, rather than those who have been innocently hurt. At Herren & Adams, we have no mixed loyalties. We represent injured auto accident and other victims exclusively, everyday, all day long.

Case load is important. If your lawyer has so many cases that they can't take the depositions to prepare your case for trial or their calendar is too full to schedule the five days it may take to try your case, your case may get settled for much less than it's worth. It's a telling sign when your lawyer is too busy to personally return your phone calls for days or even weeks at a time. At Herren & Adams, our record is not perfect, but we will personally call every client back within 48 hours or explain why we have not been able to.

It's important that your lawyer have the financial and investigative resources to handle a serious personal injury case. Many accident/injury cases are not self-proving. Your traffic accident case may require an accident reconstructionist or even a biomechanical engineer. Your traumatic head injury case may require psychiatric and diagnostic testing. Permanent injuries may require a vocational or economic expert to calculate and explain future earnings loss. At Herren & Adams, we've been at this collectively for over 40 years and we're proud of our success. Not only do we know who the good experts are, we're prepared to spend what it takes to prove your case.
