WHAT A PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER IN ST LOUIS CAN DO FOR YOU

June 17, 2020 / Terry Ward / Personal Injury / Leave a Reply

When I was rear-ended on I-64, it never occurred to me that I might need the
help of a personal injury lawyer St. Louis. Traffic was traveling very slowly
due to construction and all I felt was a little tap. At first, I was confused,
but I soon learned I wasn’t the only victim in this incident. True, I was hit by
the car behind me, but only because he was hit by the vehicle behind HIM and was
literally pushed into me.

As I said, it felt like a tap. Still, we all swapped insurance information just
in case. Four days later, I noticed my hand was shaking slightly. It was an
involuntary tremor. I didn’t connect it with the accident until a coworker
noticed it and said, Didn’t you say the other day that you were in a car
accident? That was ten years ago. I still have that tremor, only it’s much, much
worse!

I never sought the assistance of a personal injury lawyer. Call it plaintiff’s
guilt. I didn’t want to be viewed as an opportunist, or of taking undue
advantage of the situation. Whatever. I now work for a personal injury lawyer
and realize how foolish I was to have neglected following through.

An experienced personal injury lawyer like John Medler has pretty much seen it
all. Where I see a little shaking, he sees a potential disability in the making.
That’s because he has likely dealt with similar situations in the past and knows
how debilitating a seemingly minor injury can become. He knows that it’s not
just about today; it’s about the future as well and the very real possibility of
becoming unemployable due to my injury.



He knows filing a personal injury claim, or even a lawsuit, is nothing about
which to be ashamed. No need to feel guilty or greedy. A person who has suffered
an injury due to another person’s irresponsible behavior has a right to be
compensated for that injury and the accompanying emotional distress. He also
knows the other party’s insurance carrier would like you to feel guilty about
filing that claim and in fact will play on that guilt in order to make that
claim go away or at least to save their insurance company from paying out on a
large settlement.

Your personal injury lawyer is there to protect you from those kinds of
manipulations and ensure that you get the compensation you deserve. So don’t be
like me. If you have been injured in an accident, talk to a lawyer specializing
in personal injuries and get the compensation you deserve.


FAMILY LAW VS PERSONAL INJURY LAW

December 24, 2020 / Terry Ward / Personal Injury / Leave a Reply

Statistics show that approximately 50% of all marriages now end in divorce and
in addition to the emotional trauma, the parties concerned are often required to
pursue the long process of dividing assets (if both individuals were responsible
for paying home expenses that is). In order to make these legal affairs slightly
easier many people opt to hire family law attorneys. A family law attorney is an
individual who specializes in family law and is able to handle the various
aspects of a divorce. This article will provide information on how to choose the
most suitable family law attorney for your specific legal needs.


1. CERTIFICATION AND LICENSURE

Attorneys deal with a plethora of issues and there are numerous specializations
available ranging from criminal lawyers who handle criminal charges to family
law attorneys who handle issues involving family and domestic-related matters. A
family law attorney can manage legal issues such as adoption, surrogacy, spousal
abuse, marriage disputes, child abuse and even domestic partnerships; however,
for a lawyer to practice in family law he or she must hold the correct licensure
and certification. To obtain this documentation and regulation he or she must
have received the correct education and passed a law bar exam. To ensure your
chosen family law attorney has completed these tasks you should request a copy
of their official documents.


2. REFERRALS AND REFERENCES

One method to locate a reliable and trustworthy family law attorney Los Angeles
is through an attorney referral service. The attorney referral services are
generally available through the city or state bar association; however, you will
be required to determine whether or not your city or state has a referral
service as they are not available everywhere. When using this service the bar
association will be able to provide you with various qualified attorneys in good
standing.

Another method of locating a reliable and effective family law attorney is
through ‘word of mouth’ referrals from family, friends, neighbors and
co-workers. This method is highly beneficial as it generally leads to finding an
attorney who has experience and is trustworthy. Of course, you can also research
attorneys online and obtain third-party testimonials from previous clients to
verify the referrals received from friends and neighbors.


3. THE INITIAL CONSULTATION

Once you have selected approximately three family law attorneys it is time to
attend an initial consultation. At the initial consultation one will be provided
with the opportunity to discuss your case; as well as evaluating the attorney’s
skills and experience. It is recommended that you pay attention to such
indicators as the amount of attention the attorney pays to specific details in
your case. Furthermore, effective attorneys will explain the law as it relates
to the case allowing you to understand the situation entirely. If the attorney
does not explain the legal jargon being used and does not examine the case in
detail, this may be an indicator of an inexperienced and inefficient lawyer.

The initial consultation will also cover issues such as retainer fees, case fees
and various other relevant information. Always be prepared to provide the
attorney with the correct information and documentation supporting your position
and case. It is highly recommended that you read over the agreements regarding
fees carefully and question any statements that you do not understand. This will
ensure you are not taken advantage of and choose the most reliable family law
attorney available.

Final words on the matter

As can be seen, locating and dealing with a family law attorney can be a
complicated matter; however, by completing research and conducting yourself
appropriately one will find that it is not as daunting as originally
anticipated.


BEST REASONS TO CALL YOUR ST LOUIS AUTO ACCIDENT ATTORNEY IMMEDIATELY

September 29, 2020 / Bill Long / Personal Injury / Leave a Reply

So you’ve been involved in a nasty little fender bender, and it looks like it’s
your fault. You’re thinking that maybe you can just sweet talk the police, turn
it over to your insurance company, and everything will be okay tomorrow. And
then you’re probably wondering why it could possibly be necessary to call a
criminal auto accident lawyer, right now everything looks okay. First of all,
many times the police are experts in making you think everything’s okay, just
before they decide to put the handcuffs on you and put you in jail. What they’ve
done is ask you a bunch of innocent questions and helped you admit guilt all
over the place, so they can then charge you. Let’s go over some of the other
important reasons why you should call a Saint Louis traffic lawyer immediately.

It’s extremely important, when involved in a car accident, that you hire an
attorney who specializes in auto accident criminal investigations. Your basic
divorce attorney or bankruptcy lawyer is ill-equipped to handle a serious
criminal charge after a car accident. The appropriate kind of attorney will have
investigators that he can call any hour day or night, and have them on the scene
with tape measures and cameras, asking questions of witnesses and the police.
Meanwhile, your St. Louis traffic lawyer will be standing between the police and
you, keeping you from answering any incriminating questions that they may have.
Many times that alone can keep you from being charged with a crime.

A good auto accident attorney is an expert at pointing out to the police
investigators facts that they may not notice, that could actually prove you are
not negligent for the accident at all, or that there are extenuating
circumstances that put into question your guilt. The police don’t usually want
to go to trial on a case they’re not sure they can win, or were the facts are a
little bit cloudy one way or the other. In many cases they will recommend to the
prosecutor whether or not they believe you should be charged, and by having an
attorney present right from the beginning, they know you’ll be well represented.

Finally, if your accident lawyer can prove that you are not negligent for the
accident, you could then be eligible to collect from another party’s insurance
company, the costs of your medical bills, car repairs and additional for pain
and suffering. There should be no better reason than to call your St. Louis auto
accident attorney immediately any time you’re involved in an accident.

PERSONAL INJURY CASE #1: ST. CHARLES AC REPAIR COMPANY

August 5, 2020 / Bill Long / Personal Injury

It is important not to put off AC repair in St Charles Missouri, if you want to
keep your home at a comfortable temperature over the summer months. But how do
you know when it is time to call in a technician? Sometimes, it is very obvious
if there is a problem with your air conditioning system, but there are also
times when the issue is very subtle. Knowing how to spot potential issues at an
early stage means that the problem will not escalate and become more costly to
fix.



To check if your air conditioner is functioning as expected, use the thermostat
controls to switch the unit on. Listen very carefully and take note of any
noises which are unfamiliar. In particular, you should listen for knocking
sounds or squeaking noises, which can indicate a problem with the belt or the
motor. Sometimes these elements just need lubrication rather than replacement,
but it is best to call in a technician to get an expert opinion and to ensure
that the job is carried out properly.

You should also check the effectiveness of your air conditioning by taking the
temperature in each room. If the system is working efficiently, the rooms should
be of a similar temperature. Allow the thermometer a few minutes to adjust, to
get a more accurate reading. You also want to check that the thermostat on the
air conditioning unit and the temperature readings you have taken in the rooms
match up. If there is significant disagreement, have your AC unit serviced.
There may be a minor issue developing, or the thermostat might be faulty.

The final check you should make is to look for water dripping around the unit,
or any formation of ice crystals. This is a clear sign that the air conditioning
unit is not cooling the air effectively and is in need of repair. This is a job
which always needs professional attention. If there are cracks in the tubes,
then they will need immediate replacement. Pools of water may also indicate a
serious problem with the condensation pump, which should remove excess water to
the drain.

If you are in any doubt that your air conditioning system is working correctly,
you should call in a professional to take a look at it. In the long term, you
will be saving money as problems are easier to resolve in the early stages.
