How Your Personal Injury Claim Is Evaluated

Introduction

When you hire a Brooklyn personal injury lawyer, it is sometimes considered that the personal injury victim has the upper hand. Personal injury lawyers assess your personal injury case to determine whether or not it is worth investigating.

When you sit down with your lawyer to discuss your personal injury claim, your lawyer needs to evaluate your case. To get know about your compensation means how much compensation you will receive, whether you can sue the other person or not, and your case’s strength.

What your lawyer needs to evaluate your claim.

Before discussing with your lawyer, you need to know these factors:

1. Details about your accident

2. How and where you got injured.

3. Extent and seriousness of injuries due to the accident.

4. Additional documents

5. Details about the person who caused the accident

Relevant Details about Evaluation.

1. Details about your accident

You must gather all relevant information regarding your accident, such as when and where you had an accident and when you realize that you are suffering from severe injury.

2. How and where you get injured.

It would be best to tell your lawyer where and how you got injured. It will help your lawyer find out who is at fault. Because it is so common for the victim to have trouble recalling the whole incident, it will be good if a victim brings someone who was present at that time. Getting police or witness reports will help you more to strengthen your case.

3. How many injuries you obtained due to the accident.

The essential point in the personal injury claim is to prove that you got injured due to the other party’s actions. To establish this, you need to bring your medical reports with you. Also, provide the contact information of the doctor who is overseeing you.

4. Additional documents

You also need to provide photographs and videos, police reports, witnesses statements, and legal documents. You can also bring the receipt of lost wages in your job due to your injury.

5. Details about the person who caused the accident.

It is also necessary to provide details about the other party. For example, if they tried to contact you or not. If yes, you should bring text messages, emails, and any other sources of contact with you.
