Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I am involved in a personal injury accident?

First, seek medical care, even if you believe at first that your injuries are minor. Next, gather evidence and document the accident while it is still fresh. Avoid providing recorded statements to insurance companies. Contact one of our skilled personal injury attorneys as soon as possible.

How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?

Our firm works on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay no fees upfront. We collect a percentage of your final settlement or award only if we recover compensation for you.

Can I handle my personal injury case without a lawyer?

While you are not required to hire an attorney, having experienced legal counsel significantly improves your chances of obtaining full and fair compensation. Insurance adjusters often take advantage of unrepresented victims. Our lawyers have the knowledge and skills to negotiate aggressively and protect your rights.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Limestone County?

Under Alabama law, you typically have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit, though certain factors could make the period longer or shorter depending on the circumstances. Contact our attorneys promptly after any accident to avoid missing the deadlines.
