Additional Information:
I was involved in a car accident on Rte 135 in Ashland. My car was struck from behind. As a result of the auto accident my doctor has said I have 25% permanent partial loss of function of lumbar spine. What can I expect when I hire a auto accident lawyer?
ATTORNEY ANSWER:
A permanent injury means you may seek money damages from a wrongdoer now that will take into account an injury that will continue into the future. These permanency damages are part of the total package your lawyer should send to the adverse insurer, including medical bills, lost wages, total and partial disability and a demand for settlement.
Many attorneys send in your information piecemeal to the insurer and then try to negotiate a settlement. A complete package sent to the insurer when you have finished your medical treatment with a final medical report from your doctor describing how any permanent injury effects you is the best way to maximize a settlement.
