Maryland Boat Accident Attorneys

When you’re wondering about your boat accident case, you may first wonder which attorney you should select. It’s a difficult process at first, but when you find a law firm that has a reputation for excellence, both in boating accident cases and in permanent injury cases, a law firm that’s experienced in negotiation and in trials, you know that you found the right law firm.

A law firm should stand with you, and will listen to your questions and give you the answers. At Alpert Schreyer Injury Accident Lawyers we have a plan and a path forward in your case for success.

One of the first questions our new clients often asks us is what are all the damages that are available for my loss? Every case is different, but there are certain categories of damages that the attorney should explain to you at the very first meeting. The damages include medical expenses that have been incurred to date. Sometimes it’s also necessary to figure out what the future medical benefits are needed to resolve your injury or to make you successful in getting back to work. You may have lost wages in the past, and those may continue into the future. At Alpert Schreyer Injury Accident Lawyers we can bring into your case expertise such as a vocational expert who can guide us through the questions about your future employment and give us the correct answers. Sometimes, we have to investigate further. We can bring in an economist to evaluate all of the future losses in your case like wages or other employment benefits.

There are also things we have to look at like therapy that may be needed in the future, and then the emotional impact. We also need to determine your life expectancy. How long would this injury be a burden on you? To answer this question, we will often bring in medical expertise to answer those questions. This way we can give a full and complete explanation of your injuries to the insurance company when we demand full and fair compensation.

Once we’ve gathered that information, we begin the process of negotiating with the insurance company. If they don’t want to negotiate fairly, we enter the courtroom, and then we present a strong case for you.

We often see that after a boating accident, people don’t want to contact a lawyer. Maybe the person involved that was at fault was a friend of theirs. This may make them think that they shouldn’t do anything. Other times people are worried about their injury and they go to their doctor, but they postpone resolving the legal problem.

We want you to contact an attorney right away. Someone who’s experienced in boating accidents so that you don’t delay the problem and make it worse. If you delay, evidence could be lost. The insurance company could start making you lowball offers. Instead, let’s start working together to find out all the details of the crash, and let’s explore the future medical needs that you may have in order to get a full and complete successful outcome of your case.

If you’re wondering what to do after a boating accident, you should start right away by contacting a law firm like Alpert Schreyer Injury Accident Lawyers that has experience with boating injuries and boating accidents.

We can answer your questions within the first few minutes of our discussion, which will relieve some of the worry, concern, and stress that you’re probably feeling. We can also guide you through the process of how to get a full and complete recovery in your case, whether it be lost wages, future medical expenses, or past medical expenses. We can also find all the appropriate insurances that must be contacted in order to get a full recovery in your case.

Oftentimes people wonder whether a boating collision case can be resolved quickly. The reality is that some can, but most times the insurance companies can dangle low ball offers in front of you. They do this to entice you into doing the wrong thing. We always fight that. We always fight those bad offers. We do that by a process of investigating and evaluating your case that is thorough and complete because that’s what our clients want and that’s what our clients deserve.

How does that process look? First of all, there’s the medical treatment. Our clients go to appropriate medical treatment and seek the best medical care they can. Oftentimes, good doctors can help a lot, but sometimes doctors can’t bring a complete recovery. Our clients then are faced with a permanent injury. If your doctors have tried and have not cured all of your problems, you deserve compensation for all the burdens in your life that have been caused by this tragedy.

We can begin to evaluate future medical care needs, future therapy needs, and other benefits necessary for a full recovery. This could be lost wages, emotional impact on your life, or all the physical and emotional struggles that you’re facing because of the permanent injury. We then can put together a thorough legal brief called a demand, and we push that onto the insurance company’s desk with a demand that they pay full and fair compensation. If they don’t want to negotiate, then we can file a suit and force them to do the right thing. We will prepare your case for trial, and if necessary, go through a trial.

Sometimes clients call us shortly after a boating accident and wonder what the value of the case is. And sometimes it’s possible to tell the new client exactly what the value is, but oftentimes that’s difficult because they haven’t been to the doctor. The doctor doesn’t know what the problem is because they haven’t fully evaluated the problem or treated the problem. Other times, there are missing pieces of evidence that we must locate. To locate this evidence, we sometimes must bring in forensic experts to reconstruct how the injury happened. We have the tools and the experience to bring in those experts for a full forensic evaluation of all the evidence. We know where to find experts who are truthful, honest, and thorough in their presentation so that if we need to go to trial, we can present to the jury a clear, simple, and successful case and get you the right outcome.
