When Is My Personal Injury Case Worth Nothing?

Michael P. Ehline, P.C.
A personal injury case can be worth nothing if you follow these steps, when your involved in an accident and injuries do not hamper you from exiting the vehicle, do not bother to ask for the other drivers information such as their insurance or their drivers license number, phone number or address. Insurance is not a worry when no one involved has severe injuries.

Calling police to the scene is not necessary if none of the drivers or passengers involved have more than minor injuries. Why bother the police they have more important things to do than come to the scene of an accident.

Besides, the driver who struck your car offered to give you cash to fix the damages to your car, so who needs to involve the police or the insurance companies. It was just a car accident; people have them every day and spend a lot of time when they get wrapped up in claims to insurance companies.

When is my personal injury case worth nothing? When there are no serious injuries of course, why would it be worth any money if I just need a few stitches and my neck hurts? No one files with the insurance company or hires an attorney in Los Angeles or Marina del Rey or really anyplace else in California.

Certainly after a few days off work that pain in my neck will go away and by then it will be almost time to have those pesky stitches out, whatīs a little scar anyway? There is always plastic surgery that will take care of the scar certainly.

If I hired an injury attorney in Los Angeles, who may also be a DUI Lawyer in Marina del Rey, for example, what could they tell me anyway, that the accident was not bad enough to worry about and I would lose a day of work to go find out that the attorney could not do anything to help me with my car accident and the accident was not my fault so I donīt need an attorney.

When is my personal injury case worth nothing? It is worth no compensation when a person thinks this way, when they do not take the proper steps at the scene of the accident. When they do not exchange information and when they do not enlist the assistance of the police to record information about the accident that can later be used by the insurance company, by personal injury lawyers in Los Angeles or an Orange County personal injury attorney who will bring an accident case to court with evidence about the accident and how it occurred.
