If you’ve been injured, you may wonder what the next steps should be. Should you take your case to court? How much money should you seek in damages? These questions can sometimes be difficult to navigate without qualified help. Every personal injury case is unique. For instance, a car accident personal injury case will be handled differently than a medical malpractice case. For instance, with a medical malpractice case, the acquisition of expert medical witnesses is much more crucial in order to prove that a doctor failed to meet the standard of care owed to a patient. The Cooper Law Firm handles a range of personal injury cases, including:

  • Truck accident injuries
  • Car accident injuries
  • Burn/explosion injuries
  • Oilfield injuries
  • Nursing home injuries
  • Motorcycle injuries
  • Wrongful death

Truck accident injuries may require a different kind of legal process than car accident injuries. Car accident injuries usually involve private citizens and their insurers, while truck accidents may require litigation with larger shipping companies, their operators, their drivers, and their insurers. Nursing home injuries may involve a range of factors including premises liability to medical malpractice issues. Consulting with an accident lawyer is an important first step in understanding your rights and what kind of legal proceedings may be required in order for you to seek justice. The Cooper Law Firm takes the time to review each client’s case and determine the best course of action under the law. The firm will review your medical records and any bills you have had to pay as a result of your accident. Using this evidence, we’ll offer an honest assessment of the damages you may be entitled to receive. Sometimes we may use the opinion of medical professionals or other experts. In order to determine pain and suffering damages, for instance, we may have to get estimates about the possible future cost of ongoing treatment, and may need diagnoses to prove the severity of your disability. Finding a personal injury attorney in Van Zandt, Texas with whom you feel comfortable is very important. With the Cooper Law Firm on your side, we’ll ensure that we have all the information we need to help you receive the maximum amount in damages available to you under the law.

What Information Will Your Injury Lawyer Need?

In order to prepare for your initial consultation with your lawyer, you can gather some important documents so that your lawyer has as much information as possible about your case. For instance, if you’ve been in a car accident, bringing photos of damage to your vehicle and a copy of the police report can be useful. It is also essential to gather the names and contact information for any witnesses. If you have car insurance, a copy of your policy and information about the other driver’s policy can also be beneficial. If you were injured in a slip and fall accident, photos of the area where you were injured can offer context. Your accident lawyer can review this evidence to build a strong case for you.

Other important evidence includes any copies of medical bills, copies of rehabilitation expenses, and any medical reports you have. If you’ve had to miss time at work, any records of this absence and paystubs can help your injury lawyer determine a fair value of your economic loss. Your lawyer may need additional evidence beyond what you have and can offer advice about any other tests you may need. If you’ve been injured in Van Zandt, Texas, a personal injury attorney may be able to help you build the strongest case possible. The Cooper Law Firm places its clients’ interests first. You can trust us to be there for you through the entire process.
