When you’re injured, it can be tempting to try and navigate the aftermath of your injuries without hiring an attorney. Maybe an insurance company has already offered you a settlement, and maybe it seems like a lot of money. But if you accept their first offer without speaking to an attorney, you might regret it.

It’s common for these initial settlement offers to be just a tiny fraction of what the injured party would recover through a personal injury lawsuit.

Keep in mind that, generally speaking, insurance companies care much more about profits than people. That’s why you need an experienced advocate who will fight to protect your rights.

A personal injury attorney can review your case, gather evidence, and determine the full, lifelong cost of your injuries. Before you sign anything or agree to any offers of compensation, contact a Morgan & Morgan attorney. You have nothing to lose and potentially a lot to gain.

Calculating the total cost of serious injuries is difficult. When you hire a personal injury attorney, they can investigate your case and gather the necessary documentation to determine the full extent of your past and future losses. 

Personal injury lawsuits typically seek to recover some or all of the following types of damages:

• Medical costs, including hospital bills
• Lost wages
• Property damage
• Loss of earning capacity (if you’re unable to return to work or have decreased earning potential)
• Pain and suffering
• Funeral expenses (in cases of wrongful death)

The answer is simple: Yes. Hiring a Morgan & Morgan attorney costs you nothing up front and nothing out-of-pocket. Our attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning that we receive a percentage of the compensation you win at trial or in a settlement. If we don’t win, you don’t pay.

If you or a loved one has been injured, it’s important that you speak with an attorney as soon as possible. Morgan & Morgan has the resources of a big law firm and the personalized service of a small one, so our clients get the best of both worlds.

We believe that no one should go broke because they were injured through no fault of their own. That’s why we’ve fought For The People against corporations and insurance companies for more than 30 years. Nationwide, we have helped our clients recover more than $13 billion in damages.
