There are a couple of things you want to look at when looking to hire an attorney. The first one being, is the attorney is Board Certified in personal injury trial law, or do they practice in multiple areas? For a personal injury case, you want someone who is solely dedicated to personal injury matters. Secondly, how many cases does the attorney take? Are they a large mill, or are they selective in the cases they take to make sure that each one gets the individualized attention it deserves? Thirdly, what is the attorney like? You should feel a sense of knowing, liking and trusting the attorney after you meet with them and their staff. If you don't have a good trusting relationship with the lawyer at the beginning of the process, it will not get better as it moves along. These are just a few things to look for as you begin your search for a personal injury attorney. Download my book at TexasLawBooks.com for some additional things to look for during this process.

If you've been involved in a small car accident, you may not need the assistance of a lawyer. Yes, that's right. Oftentimes, smaller claims handled without hiring a lawyer allow the net result or recovery to you to be much more than if you did hire the assistance. For a better understanding on how to handle your personal injury claim without a lawyer, you can download our book called How Do I.. Settle It Myself, by going to TexasLawBooks.com. But what if your accident is more serious, resulting in serious injuries, surgeries or trips to the hospital?

Accidents that involve serious injuries are much more complex claims and require extreme attention to detail. If you've been seriously injured, I suggest you seek help from an experienced attorney.
