Damages are any losses you sustain due to the accident. They can be either economic or non-economic in nature, and might include things like medical bills, lost income/wages, disability, pain and suffering, and future care costs. The exact damages you may be able to recover will depend on the specifics of your situation. We recommend that you speak to one of our attorneys during a free, no-obligation consultation to learn more.

Many people are understandably concerned about the cost of hiring a lawyer. After all, when you’re already dealing with the financial challenges caused by the accident, the idea of hiring an attorney and paying for legal services can seem like an added burden. But when you work with Scott Law Firm, there are no upfront or out-of-pocket expenses because we provide our services on a contingency fee basis, meaning we only collect attorneys’ fees if/when we win your case. If we do not recover a settlement or verdict on your behalf, you do not pay.

While you are not required by law to work with an attorney in filing your claim, it is strongly recommended that you do. This is because the insurance company will likely be working actively against you. Their goal is to do everything they can to dispute, devalue, or deny your claim. If you speak directly to the insurance adjuster, you might accidentally admit fault, downplay your injuries and damages, or otherwise compromise your rights. But by having an experienced attorney on your side, you not only have someone who will fight back against tricky insurance company tactics, but you can also focus on what matters most—healing—while your legal team handles the details of your case. Most people who work with an attorney during their injury claim receive higher settlements and, in the event the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, your attorney will be ready to represent you at trial.

Navigating the legal process is complex and time-consuming. You want a legal team that has the experience and reputation needed to effectively represent you. At Scott Law Firm, we are dedicated to protecting the rights of injured victims and fighting to secure better futures on their behalf.
