When you're recovering from a car accident, choosing the right attorney can make or break your case. Not all injury lawyers are created equal, and asking the right questions upfront can save you time, money, and future regret.
At Big Auto, we encourage every prospective client to dig deep, get honest answers, and make an informed decision. Here's what to ask, and how our powerhouse legal team measures up.
1. What Experience Do You Have with Car Accident Cases Like Mine?
Car accident law isn’t just about reading the rules and filing paperwork. It’s about understanding the complex medical issues, insurance loopholes, traffic patterns, and regional nuances that define each case.
Ask your prospective lawyer:
- Have you handled rear-end collisions? Rideshare crashes? Multi-car pileups?
- Do you know how to deal with insurance companies that delay or deny?
- Are you experienced in my state’s legal system?
Big Auto’s Advantage: We don’t dabble in injury law, it’s what we do. From traumatic brain injuries to commercial vehicle crashes, our legal teams across Georgia, Texas, Florida, Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan have recovered millions for crash victims in high-stakes battles.
We’ve handled:
- Multi-car collisions on I-285 in Atlanta
- Rideshare accidents in downtown Miami
- Truck crashes on I-94 in Detroit
- Rear-end injuries in heavy Dallas traffic
Don’t settle for small-case experience. Big Auto brings big results.
2. What’s Your Track Record for Settlements and Verdicts?
Some lawyers just want a quick payout. They’ll settle low and move on.
Others, like Big Auto, are built to go the distance, and we’ve got the verdicts and settlements to prove it.
Ask:
- What is the average settlement amount you’ve secured for clients?
- Are you willing to take my case to trial if necessary?
- Have you won cases against major insurers?
Big Auto’s Edge: Our injury lawyers don’t back down from tough fights. When insurance companies play games, we bring legal firepower that demands attention, and compensation.
We’re not just here to file paperwork. We’re here to maximize your recovery.
3. How Do You Charge for Your Services?
Injury victims are often worried about legal fees, and rightly so. Before you sign anything, get clear on how your attorney charges:
- Is it a contingency fee? (You only pay if they win)
- Are there hidden costs for court filings, experts, or investigators?
- Will they walk you through the fee agreement?
At Big Auto, it’s simple: You pay nothing upfront.
You owe us nothing unless we win.
Our fees are transparent and clearly explained in your free consultation.
This isn’t about billable hours. It’s about results.
4. How Will You Communicate With Me About My Case?
After an accident, you're already dealing with stress. You shouldn’t have to chase down your lawyer just to get an update.
Ask:
- Who will be my point of contact?
- How often will I get updates on my case?
- Can I call, text, or email my legal team?
Big Auto’s Promise:We treat every client like family. That means:
- Regular updates about your case
- A team that answers your questions, fast
- Lawyers who take the time to explain your options, without the legal jargon
You’ll never feel in the dark.
