The questions you should ask may vary depending on your claim, but in general, they include the following:

1. How long have you been practicing personal injury law?
2. What is your success rate in personal injury cases?
3. How will my case be handled and what is the estimated timeline?
4. What types of damages am I entitled to receive?
5. Are there any potential risks or downsides to pursuing a personal injury claim?
6. Do you have any references from past clients I can contact?
7. How much do you charge for your services, and what payment options are available?

Yes, you can negotiate a settlement without a personal injury lawyer. However, it is highly recommended that you seek legal advice before attempting to negotiate a settlement on your own. A personal injury lawyer can provide you with the legal knowledge and experience necessary to ensure that your rights are fully protected and that you receive the maximum amount of compensation possible.

When choosing a personal injury lawyer, it is important to consider the lawyer’s experience, reputation, and track record. You should also make sure that the lawyer is knowledgeable about the area of law relevant to your case. Additionally, you should feel comfortable communicating with the lawyer and confident that they will be able to handle your case effectively. At The Bourassa Law Group, you will have attorneys with over 30 years of experience working for the defense and insurance companies taking those skills and fighting for you.

Your personal injury claim may be going to court if the other party does not agree to settle your claim. This could be because they do not believe you are entitled to the amount of compensation you are seeking, or because they do not believe that the accident was their fault. If the two parties cannot come to an agreement, then the case may have to be decided in court.
