We’ve all been there at some point in our lives. Our friend or loved one has been injured or even killed in an accident that was not their fault and we want to help, but feel absolutely helpless and unprepared. We know that the situation is bad, really bad. Your friend or family member is trying to focus on healing and recovering from his or her injuries, but the medical bills are piling up and they are unable to work.
It is easy to become overwhelmed by it all. But there is a way to help.
If you have a friend or loved one that was injured or killed in an accident that was not their fault, you should encourage them to contact a personal injury lawyer. My law firm, The Thomson Law Firm in Roanoke, Virginia offers free consultations to victims of personal injury and I will even come to the victim’s home, rehabilitation center, or hospital to talk with your friend or loved one about their case.
When considering hiring a lawyer, think about these circumstances:
- Are your friend or family member’s injuries severe, with multiple medical bills from several different providers?
- Will your friend or family member need long-term or life-long care medical care?
- Did your friend or family member’s accident involve multiple vehicles and multiple insurance companies?
- Was your friend or family member injured by a defective product?
- Did your friend or family member suffer injuries due to medical malpractice?
- Did your friend or family member suffer a brain injury?
- Is your friend or family member unable to return to work and is suffering lost wages as a result of his or her injuries?
It is important that the victim finds an attorney that they feel comfortable working with. Cases that include very serious accidents and injuries can take many months or even a few years to litigate.
