All personal injury cases involve two basic legal issues, liability, and damages. Essentially, who is responsible and what are they responsible for. A personal injury lawyer’s job is to identify who is legally responsible for your injuries and fight for financial compensation for the damages that you have incurred. Damages can include present and future medical bills, pain, and suffering lost wages, among others. The right attorney understands all the laws, processes, and strategies involved and can help you at every stage of your case. A lawyer can take care of many tasks for you, including:

When searching for an attorney to hire in Hartford, look for one with experience handling cases involving the type of injury you’ve suffered. This is important for several reasons. For instance, if your loved one has suffered a serious brain injury, you’ll want an attorney who understands the injury, the laws relating to it, and how much compensation you’ll need to cover the lifetime costs associated with it. If your attorney has never handled a brain injury case, they may accept a settlement for much less than you need.
