To ensure your case is filed on time, consult a qualified personal injury lawyer as soon as possible.

- If I Need A Lawyer For A
Case, How Long Should I Wait To Hire One?
Most civil cases have a set maximum amount of time to file a lawsuit in court. This is called the “statute of limitations.” Generally, you have two (2) years from the date that you were injured or wronged before time runs out and you are forever barred from ever having your day in court to seek justice. If you think you have a case, you should speak to an attorney at Palker Law Firm immediately to ensure that you still have time to seek the justice you deserve.
- How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t pay any upfront costs. Instead, the attorney only gets paid if you win your case. Their fee is typically a percentage of your settlement or court award. This arrangement makes legal representation accessible to anyone seeking justice after an injury.
- What should I do immediately after an accident to protect my claim?
To strengthen your personal injury claim, follow these steps: Seek medical attention: Your health comes first, and medical records are vital for your claim. Document everything: Take photos of injuries, the accident scene, and any property damage. Get witness information: Collect names and contact details of witnesses. Report the incident: Notify the police or relevant authorities (workplace, store manager, etc.). Contact a personal injury lawyer: A lawyer can guide you through the claims process and protect your rights. For expert legal assistance: Palker Law Firm to help navigate your personal injury case.
