HOW A GOOD ASHEVILLE PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY CAN HELP

By bringing a strong reputation as a successful trial attorney. This fact can strongly influence the amount of your settlement. Our personal injury lawyer is known as a skilled litigator who is always ready to take clients’ cases to court. His reputation alone can often cause insurance companies to increase their settlement offers. Insurance companies know that when a successful trial lawyer is on a case, they may end up spending more money by going to court than they would by settling. They also know which personal injury lawyers tend to settle and not go to court. You can bet your insurer will make a higher settlement offer to you because our personal injury lawyer isn’t afraid of going to trial.

By preparing your case as if it is going to trial. Our personal injury lawyer prepares every case as if it is going to trial. If the insurance company in your case refuses to offer a fair and reasonable settlement, your case will have to be ready to go to court and be argued before a jury. As an experienced personal injury trial attorney, Lakota understands the way insurance companies think. Personal injury lawyers who don’t take cases to trial aren’t taken seriously by insurers or their high-priced attorneys. A good personal injury lawyer will always be thinking about how to try your case, even at your first meeting. That’s why everything our attorney does will be to prepare for a jury trial, even if it seems unlikely. Never hire an Asheville personal injury lawyer who does not consistently try cases before a jury.

By communicating with your doctors. Our personal injury lawyer will gather all medical information needed to build a strong case. Lakota Denton will talk to your doctors to learn specific information about your injury, how you were injured, what your future looks like, and whether your injury is permanent. In his personal injury practice, Lakota always reaches out to doctors of his injured clients to find out exact details of their injuries and what types of expensive medical treatments they will need now and in the future. This information will be an effective way to show insurance companies, or jurors, exactly how your injuries caused by a negligent accident have negatively affected your life. This strategy can greatly increase the value of your personal injury case.

By articulating the impact of your injuries on your life. It’s important to have someone else speak about how your injury has affected you. When you have to speak for yourself, it can be harder to open up about exactly how difficult things are for you since your accident. Don’t worry. Our team understands that you may be uncomfortable talking about your pain. We know what to do. Our personal injury lawyer will find people in your life who have seen how your injuries have affected your day-to-day life and your overall lifestyle. While insurance companies who think in dollar signs may not be sympathetic to the negative impacts of injuries on a person’s life, jurors most likely will identify and have empathy. The fear of a larger payout in a trial will play a strong role in increasing an insurer’s settlement offer. That’s why working with our personal injury attorney is so essential. He knows how to win. When other people in your life talk about what they have observed about you since your injury accident, it can have a real impact on a jury and a potential jury award. Our Asheville personal injury lawyer will identity people in your life who can speak about your injuries and prepare them to testify.

By investigating the at-fault party in a personal injury case. The reality is that juries and insurance companies will value your case higher when the negligence of the at-fault party was particularly severe. For example, a driver who got behind the wheel after drinking and caused a crash is a different case than that of a person who simply took his eyes off the road for a moment. Our team always conducts a thorough investigation of the at-fault party. We know it is essential to increasing the value of your personal injury case. Was the at-fault person texting on their phone at the time of the car crash? Did the corporation hire someone they shouldn’t have? Did a property owner fail to repair a handrail? All of these examples will increase the value of your claim. Our Asheville personal injury lawyer will thoroughly investigate all possible factors in your case. We are steadfast in our investigation of ways that the at-fault person or another party may have acted egregiously when they caused your injury accident.

By effectively standing up for you in the courtroom. Lakota is an intimidating trial lawyer. You will always have that advantage in your back pocket. Should insurance negotiations be unsuccessful, he’s an Asheville personal injury attorney who will stand up for you in the courtroom. As an experienced trial attorney, he understands what it takes to articulate clients’ cases before juries to obtain successful outcomes in personal injury claims.

You deserve a better personal injury lawyer. We believe that every client deserves the best possible representation. We’re not afraid to take on tough cases, and we never give up until we get results. As our client, you deserve nothing less than the best. If you’re looking for a personal injury lawyer in Asheville who will fight for you and get you the maximum settlement, we’re the firm for you.

We have a proven record of success. You may be worried that if you don’t get a good personal injury settlement, there may not be enough to cover your medical bills, your lost wages, and enough compensation for your pain and suffering. We understand what it takes to win all the compensation you deserve in your personal injury case. Insurance companies know Lakota’s winning record in litigation. When they face him at the negotiating table, they recognize that they have a skilled and experienced adversary. That’s why you want personal injury attorney Lakota Denton on your side.
