What Are The Right Questions To Ask A Construction Accident Attorney?

Hiring an attorney can sometimes feel like an interview. Before settling on a construction accident attorney, you need to ask the right questions. First of all before you speak to an attorney, do your research and have detailed information about the construction accident and the injuries and financial losses that occurred.

Questions To Ask During Consultation

Once you have set up a face to face appointment with a potential construction accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:

1. How well versed is the lawyer in state and national workplace safety laws?
2. How long has the lawyer been practicing law for?
3. How many construction accident related lawsuits has the lawyer handled?
4. How often has the lawyer settled?
5. How many lawsuits have gone through litigation?
6. What is the fee structure?
7. What are the out-of-pocket expenses that you are likely to incur?
8. Is the case going to work on contingency? If so what is the percentage you will owe the lawyer if you win?

Of course these are not the only questions to ask, you can come prepared with your own questions as well. After you have asked your questions, shop around and make sure you settle on a lawyer who works well for you and your case. If a settlement is offered to you by a representative of your employer do not take until you consult with your chosen attorney. The settlement may not be in your best interests and your attorney will definitely fight for the compensation you deserve.
