As soon as you or a loved one is injured or killed in an automobile collision, fire, carbon monoxide incident, or other disaster it is a really good idea to retain an experienced Lafayette personal injury lawyer.

A personal injury lawyer can gather and properly preserve evidence before it disappears, advise you on whether or not to make a recorded statement, hire an investigator or expert when it is appropriate, determine what sources of insurance coverage may be available, and negotiate with insurance companies, including your own health insurance company, for you.

Even when you think it is crystal clear that an incident is someone’s fault it is wise to consult a personal injury lawyer because the other side will frequently still fight being held responsible, multiple people may be making claims against the defendant, and your health insurance company may try to take all of the compensation which should go to you.
