You may feel like you don't want to bring an attorney into the situation, but you can't skip this step.  The average person does not know half of what's required to receive compensation for their losses and injuries after an accident.  You might miss some work, and have to file for lost wages.  You will, no doubt, have medical bills that you need to be reimbursed for. It's a huge deal, and you will need help!  A brain injury lawyer will have the understanding and experience that you need on your side. 

Insurance companies are in business to make money.  They will want to avoid paying more than they have to for claims.  They may come to you early on, and try to get you to settle the claim.  Once the claim is settled, they are done paying.  If you settle the claim, and then develop chronic or acute pain due to the injury, you're out of luck.  How will you know when to settle the claim?  When your doctor and lawyer decide that you've reached maximum recovery.  Your attorney will help you to know when it's time to settle.

The bottom line...get help to get through it all.  There is so much that goes on during a personal injury claim and an attorney can make things so much easier for you at this difficult time. Our lawyers offer years of experience and will work diligently to get you the compensation you deserve.
