| The Importance of Hiring a Lawyer Early: Part I |
|
If you’ve been in a collision it’s always better to hire a lawyer earlier rather than later. One of the reasons this is true is that we work on a contingency fee, which means we only get paid if your case settles. So if your case involves significant injuries or a wrongful death type case, we prefer for a number of reasons, including preserving evidence, collecting evidence, talking to witnesses, to get involved in that case early on. It costs our clients usually the same if they hire us a week after the collision versus a year and a half after the collision. However, most of the time, we’re able to achieve better results the earlier we get involved with the case because of the fact that we can preserve evidence and track witnesses down and do what we need to do to start building our case as soon as we get involved. That’s not to say that we don’t take cases if they’re not within the first couple of weeks.

John's confidence and his relaxing demeanor and his ability to spell out every step of the process for me, what's going to happen and how he's going to do it, I think was the last step for me to say, "Okay, you're the guy I need." He was just so upfront and honest, because he said, "I can't promise you that this will be solved in one week or one year." But, he got it solved in two weeks! (Chuckles) I thought that was pretty impressive. I'm very happy about my decision to go with Demas and Rosenthal!
