No matter what kind of accident you were in, large or small; with a private individual or commercial truck, you need to contact a personal injury attorney just in case medical symptoms start to manifest at some later date.
Many accidents, especially car and truck accidents can present themselves as much as a year after they took place. By retaining an experienced lawyer right away, you will be able to secure evidence that can be called on much later should you need it. The lawyers at Ledger Law firm know what to look for, and how to get it- so if you happen to need it, that evidence will be available at a moments notice.
Evidence gathered at the time of the accident will be far more credible than that which is collected later, if that evidence can be collected at all. Police and medical records, eye witnesses, the weather conditions that day, the amount of traffic on the road- all this adds up to present a strong case in your defense. Whether you are guilty or not, these documents need to be available to work for you, and not against you.
Medical insurance companies are very careful about what they hand out, and will often times refuse to further implicate themselves, so they are very reluctant to re-open cases after several months. No matter what kind of accident you were involved in, you will need to get legal representation that knows how to defend you even if you don’t actually end up in court. Just retaining a lawyer can sometimes prevent the other party from entering into what he might think could be an easy win. Timing is crucial in cases like these.
If the accident involved a commercial trucking company, this is even truer. Many attorneys stay away from cases involving commercial vehicles, because they can be very time consuming, complex and go on for a long, long time. It is imperative that if this is what you find yourself dealing with, you need to find the right attorney that has experience in these things so you will not waste your time, and give the commercial company an opportunity to elude justice. Larger firms frequently have the time and money to hire sophisticated law firms, with lots of resources, so you need to be just as aggressive, and retain a team of lawyers that will stay with you until the end.
Ledger Law firm is just that company. Working on contingency, you will not have to pay any fees unless they collect a settlement; so again, you have nothing to loose- but your peace of mind. Whether it was your fault or not, there is a lot at stake in cases like these so you can’t leave it up to chance. Not only could you stand to loose much needed money to help you recover, but you could protect yourself from further action by the other people involved, and more permanent legal charges that could effect the rest of your life.
