Best Personal Injury Lawyer Miami

Many people search online reviews and resources to find the best Miami personal injury lawyer for their case. Some people ask their friends, relatives and coworkers for recommendations and referrals. Others may ask their parishioners or clergy for their trusted advice on who would be the best personal injury lawyer to hire. Different types of people have different priorities. The common denominator is that all clients want a lawyer who knows what they’re doing, that they feel comfortable communicating with, and who they can trust to get them the most money for their personal injury claim.

For injured clients looking for the best personal injury lawyer by doing online research, it can be difficult to discern which lawyers are actually the best at what they do. All of the lawyer websites and advertisements boast similar claims of being the “best” or experienced. While we all expect puffery in advertising, lawyers are held to a higher standard by the bar. It is improper for lawyers to go around saying they are the best lawyer because such a statement is subjective.

For example, some people may say Michael Jordan is the best basketball player, while others may say LeBron James is. Some fans say Tom Brady is the best quarterback of all time, but others still think Joe Montana is. The difference is with personal injury lawyers, there is no Super Bowl, championship rings, or central stats collected by a league for lawyers to have bragging rights. In fact, most settlements are confidential and aren’t advertised at all or if they are, they must be done vaguely so it’s not to violate any release and settlement agreements with confidentiality clauses.

This is why most personal injury law firms post their client reviews on their website or connect their sites to Google’s online reviews. Hearing testimonials from past clients is can be reassuring for a client looking for the best personal injury lawyer for their case.

Another way personal injury lawyers show their experience or “stats” to set them apart from other lawyers are their case results. Many personal injury law firms will post on their websites some of the representative verdicts and settlements they have obtained so the potential client can see the law firm has significant past success. Of course, past success is no indicator of future results. The facts of every personal injury case are different, even if they involve the same type of injuries and type of accident. The value of a personal injury case such as a car accident involving a rear collision where someone hurt their neck may seem very common, but the value of the case can be dissimilar from person to person. How much is your case is worth depends on the severity of the impact, the age of the victim, the location of the accident, the type of injury, the amount of medical treatment or bills, the type of defendant involved, and whether there is liability and health insurance available. This is why potential personal injury clients need to be wary of lawyers who will tell them what their case is worth with a specific dollar amount at the initial consultation.

Just because a personal injury lawyer may have some very big results, does not always mean they the right or best lawyer for you or for your type of case. Some lawyers may not communicate directly with their clients. Some may not take your type of case or your size of case. Sometimes it just may be a personality that doesn’t click like a doctor with a poor bedside manner.

Many law firms are looking for a sure thing since they work on the contingency fee basis and may not be inclined to risk time and money to take your case that has difficult liability or causation issues. Sometimes these large settlements posted on law firm advertisements were easy to come by because the facts of the case all aligned without having to do a lot of lawyering or work. Other times law firms advertise verdicts against defaulted defendants where there was no appearance by the party or a lawyer on the other and they are uncollectible. So result size doesn’t always reflect the skill or dedication of your personal injury lawyer. Perkins Law Offices has a track record of big money settlements in real cases against collectible defendants.
