After an accident, life can feel overwhelming. Between medical bills, missed work, and uncertainty about the future, it’s hard to know where to turn. Personal injury lawsuits are not like you see in the movies and TV shows, this can sometimes be a long process depending on the specifics of your case. This can be a point of frustration between clients and attorneys as the expectations set by the media are not the case with the real-world timelines. However, Becker Law is here to help you through your personal injury case every step of the way.
If you’re considering legal action, understanding the personal injury process can give you peace of mind. Here’s a quick breakdown of what you can expect in a personal injury lawsuit.
The process begins with an initial consultation, where your attorney listens to your story and evaluates the strength of your case. From there, important evidence is gathered — things like accident reports, witness statements, medical records, and documentation of your injuries. Once the details are clear, your attorney files the claim on your behalf. At Becker Law Office, we guide clients from Day 1, handling all the legal details so you can focus on healing.
Many personal injury cases resolve before ever reaching a courtroom. During this stage, your lawyer communicates directly with insurance companies, calculates damages such as medical costs and lost wages, and negotiates for a fair settlement. Becker Law Office serves as your advocate every step of the way, fighting for the full and fair compensation you deserve.
In some cases, settlement isn’t possible, and the lawsuit proceeds through the court system. This phase includes discovery (questions & answers, depositions, and other items), trial preparation, and presenting your case in court. While the process may sound intimidating, you won’t go through it alone. Becker Law Office has extensive trial experience and the determination to stand up for you when justice is at stake.
