What To Discuss With A FL Car Accident Lawyer

When you are entering an attorney-client relationship, you may be unsure what questions to ask lawyers before making a final decision on which legal professional to hire. Which makes sense, because even if it is clear to you that a lawyer could help you in securing the compensation you need after a car crash, many do not have any prior experience with personal injury attorneys.

Whether you are seeking legal representation in Clearwater, Hudson, or Tampa, you want an attorney who has experience in cases similar to your own and are clear about what you should expect and when the dispute will likely be resolved. Typically, funds to cover medical fees and lost wages can be achieved through insurance companies after a Florida car collision. But if further legal action is required, your attorney will share with you how that process would move forward.

Discuss Points of Contact and Deadlines

Many law offices specialize in specific areas of law. For example, there may be professionals who work on personal injury cases while others focus on estate and business law. Asking about who will be the point of contact for your case will bring you clarity around upcoming meetings and discussions. You want to know who you will be talking to and be sure they have the experience your case requires.

Once you know who you will be working with, understanding deadlines can give you peace of mind, letting you know where you are in the process at any given time. In Florida, there is a statute of limitations on car accident lawsuits. It is set in four years. Because of this, moving through the insurance negotiation process without delay is advised. Not only so you can receive a monetary settlement as soon as possible, but also so there will be time to take legal action, filing a lawsuit within the 48 months statute of limitations period, if needed.

Honest Conversations Build Trust

Committing to honest conversations with your Florida personal injury lawyer will lead to optimal results. If you believe there is a reason your claim could be reduced or denied, let your attorney know so they can take steps to counter those arguments should they arise. And if you do not understand something your attorney has shared with you, ask them to explain the information for you. When you and your attorney have clear communications, the process will be smoother and less stressful. Then, you can focus on other areas of concern.

Is it time for you to talk to a lawyer but you aren’t sure how to start the conversation? A legal professional will guide you through the process, asking you about the documentation you have and securing additional evidence when necessary to strengthen your claim. When you are ready to get started, talk to the skilled attorneys at Roman & Roman.

I cant express my thanks enough to Paula for all the help she gave me while i was going thru a injury claim. She was very understanding when i first met with her, she explained the process of how the claim would go and that it could take some time to get thru...

In the last week I was referred by a friend to Roman & Roman after two firms wouldn't take my case. I was in a bad auto accident my first week back to work from maternity leave. I couldn't be more stressed out. Mike Lentini and his assistant, Darlene, worked on my personal injury claim. I couldn't be happier with the service they provided or the outcome of my case. What a relief!

My auto accident was handled awesomely, had received great advice from Paula Roman, everything situation was handled with ease from repair of auto, surgery, and the settlement. Will definitely use them again if need should arise.

Thank You Roman & Roman for all of your help with our case. Paula you were so wonderful taking care of this complicated case. We Thank You for all of your hard work. If we ever need you again, we will call you first. Choose Roman & Roman, you won't regret it.

I had a wonderful experience with Roman & Roman. Paula Roman was amazing! She was very kind and on point! She worked very diligently on my case. Anytime I would have a question she would respond very quickly, and if she didn't her paralegal did. I was very happy with the outcome of my case. I would highly recommend Roman & Roman to anyone who has been in a car accident, and I will be back in the future if I ever need a lawyer again. 10 Stars all around :)

I had a fantastic experience with Roman and Roman as my attorney for my car accident case. They came to me referred by my parents. The morning after my accident I was in Paula's office getting the ball rolling. Paula Roman and her assistant Crystal were there for me every step of the way, explaining what the next step in the process was, answering my emails promptly and answering any questions I had. If I ever get into an accident again (I hope not!) I know who's office I'll be going to.

My roommate Karissa and I contacted Roman & Roman after we were in a car wreck. Mike Lentini was amazing and so was Darlene. The case went so quick and we were amazed at how quickly everything seemed to turn out. Even with the bumps in the road, they were awesome and amazing to work with. I am so glad that we contacted them...

Paula Roman did a great job helping my daughter win a settlement from a car accident. She always was available when I needed her and worked hard to get the best results. I highly recommend her.

Excellent!. They handled my case very effectively and the results were just what was needed. I would recommend their services!!

" I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS LAW FIRM TO ANYONE SEEKING EXCELLENT ATTORNEYS." My first meeting at Roman & Roman I knew I made the right decision. I interviewed several other law firms before I went to Roman & Roman, and I knew at that moment I didn't want any other law firm to represent me. All the attorneys there are experienced, professional, reliable, and overall just excellent.

I had the unfortunate luck of being the victim in a car accident. When I reached out to Roman and Roman for help, their attorneys immediately did so by finding me a doctor who treated me for my injuries. They also helped me with the property damage and depreciation value of my car. I was very pleased with the outcome of my personal injury claim and highly recommend their firm.

I needed a lawyer for an injury accident and, during a google search, I came upon the Roman & Roman Firm which is close to my studio so I contacted them. I give them two giant thumbs up!! Not only did they settle my claim to my complete satisfaction, they completed it in seven months! That is great service my friends.

Hard-working, dependable attorney. Mike was referred by a friend who knew him in law school. My automobile accident was a very difficult one because it included injuries to both my 92 year old mom and me. Mike had the patience, diligence and determination to see the case to fruition. He was able to explain the situation clearly, in layman terms, so I could make sound decisions. I wholeheartedly recommend him as an honest, sincere attorney.

Great Lawyer, Highly Recommend. I've used Mike on several occasions, and have always had the same exceptional service. The biggest difference between him and other lawyers was his alacrity. With other lawyers in the past, it seemed like I was pulling teeth to get updates on my case, but not Mike. He always kept me informed as to what he was doing and what the next step was.

Fair & Fast Settlement!. I needed a lawyer for an injury accident and, during a google search, I came upon the Roman & Roman Firm which is close to my studio so I called them and left a message. Michael Lentini returned my call the same afternoon and invited me to come in right away. That was only seven months ago and my case is already closed! I give him two thumbs up

Lease Agreement. Mr. Lentini did an excellent job helping me review a lease agreement for rental property. His review of the lease agreement was very thorough, to ensure that the arrangements made would be in my favor. When I had questions about the lease, Mr. Lentini personally responded quickly back to emails and phone calls I placed. Overall, I felt that Mr. Lentini was professional, accessible, and genuinely cared about a positive outcome for me.

We were so happy this office was very convenient . They were able to accommodate us as we were on vacation from out of town. They kept us updated throughout the process. I would definitely recommend this office to my family and friends. Thank you !!!

... You won't find genuine people like them often. You will always hear rumors throughout your life that lawyers will "screw you over" or are "rude as hell" but none of these things are true with Roman and Roman!

I hired Roman and Roman to review Real Estate sales contract. Selected them because they were listed with BBB. Extremely pleased with how they communicated, followed thru and helped my family successfully complete the sale of our parents home.This client had a POSITIVE experience with this business.This client WOULD recommend the business to a friend, family member, neighbor or colleague
