    How to Know if You Need a Lawyer

    Medical complications happen far too often. Whether the cause is just bad luck or from the negligence of a medical professional, it’s an unfortunate situation to find yourself in. You probably won’t know right away whether you need a lawyer or not. You might be confused and angry, but not know who to blame or whose fault the injury was. In some cases, it might be no one’s fault. That’s where a lawyer comes in. Birth injury lawyers have spent their careers focusing on helping people seek justice for birth injuries. If something has gone wrong at the hospital during, before, or after a delivery, it’s always a good idea to contact a lawyer. Almost all medical malpractice and personal injury lawyers will offer a free consultation. This means you can speak with the lawyer about the case and see if they think you have a valid legal claim or not. Asking an experienced professional is truly the best way to know if you need a lawyer. 

    How to Find the Best Birth Injury Lawyers in Pittsburgh, PA

    Finding a lawyer to handle such a sensitive situation can be difficult. You want someone experienced who will do everything in their power to get you and your family justice, but you also want someone with certain personality traits. When you’re dealing with something as traumatic as medical negligence, it’s normal to want a lawyer who is going to explain the law to you and really walk you through the steps with dedication and compassion. You might find a phenomenal lawyer, but if they don’t have any compassion and you don’t feel that you can work with them or trust them, then that attorney-client relationship won’t work. 

    Before deciding which lawyer to hire, consider the following:

    Experience With Birth Injury Cases
    Medical malpractice cases, particularly birth injury ones, can be complicated. They involve a lot of medical and legal jargon that can be difficult for the judge and jury to understand. It’s crucial to hire a lawyer who has experience handling birth injury cases and who can effectively communicate the information to the judge and jury in a way that they actually understand it. No matter how strong your case is, if no one understands what happened, it will be difficult for you to win your case. 

    Trial and Negotiating Skills
    Another quality you might consider looking for in an attorney is their experience in both trying and settling cases. While most personal injury and medical malpractice cases are settled before they get to trial, many cases do wind up being handled in the courtroom. 

    You want a skilled negotiator who can try to get you the best offer possible, as going to trial is almost always more expensive and more stressful than settling a case. If you have a lawyer who isn’t familiar with negotiating, they could end up pushing you to take a bad deal, or you could end up with no settlement offer at all. 

    Conversely, it’s imperative to find a lawyer who has trial experience and isn’t afraid of the pressure associated with bringing a case to the courtroom. Many personal injury and medical malpractice firms want to settle their cases as quickly as possible in order to make some quick money. This isn’t always the best approach for you. If the defense isn’t willing to make an offer that works, then it’s important to have a lawyer who can win in the courtroom.
