Just like the medical field, there are many different types of lawyers.  However, not all lawyers are created equal.  If you've been injured in a car accident, you need to see a personal injury lawyer.  In fact, the worst thing you can do is go to a generalist who practices in many different areas of law.  Rather, just as when you're trying to find a specialized medical doctor, you also want a specialized car accident lawyer.  What I mean about this is find a lawyer who does nothing but injury cases.

The reason is because the field of injury law, or tort law, is very complex.  It requires a St. Louis car accident attorney to have knowledge of a number of different areas.  This includes not only knowing the laws related to injury litigation, but also knowing the intricacies of injury law.  One of the biggest problems I see in clients cases who come to me from another lawyer is that the other lawyer did not properly investigate all potential sources of recovery.  This means how many different insurance policies we can make apply to compensate you for your injuries.  People would be astounded by the ways we can make certain types of insurance apply even if the insurance policy itself says it doesn't apply.  This is because there are a number of different laws or judicial cases overruling the limits set forth by insurance contracts.  In fact if your insurance company tells you that your injury is not covered, you should immediately seek advice from a St. Louis personal injury lawyer to see if that is in fact the case.

If you've been injured in a car accident and would like to speak for free with a St. Louis car accident attorney, contact Josh Myers at 314-720-2706 or toll free at 888-956-2487.  It is always free to talk about your case and there we never charge by the hour.  Rather, our payment comes from the percentage of the recovery.  Thus, we only get paid if and when you do.
