Choosing The Best Personal Injury Lawyer
Personal Injury Attorneys Jacksonville FL
When searching for a Florida personal injury attorney, a person may be inclined to search or obtain for the “best” personal injury attorney for the case.
When considering the following question – “How do I pick the best personal injury attorney for my case?” – the question is clearly a loaded one.
There are many skilled personal injury attorneys in just about every part of Florida.
Furthermore, there is no shortage of personal injury attorneys available to take on a good case. In addition, there are clearly many law firms willing to invest large sums of money in advertising.
This includes billboards, bus benches, radio sports, and television commercials.
When selecting a personal injury attorney, you should consider the following factors:
Experience
There is no substitute for experience no matter how bright the attorney is or how much potential the attorney has.
Also, when selecting an attorney, you may be under the belief that you have hired a senior attorney. However, most of the work gets assigned to a relatively inexperienced attorney.
At Wood, Atter & Wolf, P.A., your personal injury case will be handled by an attorney with over 30 years of experience.
Likewise, you will not be shuffled over to an inexperienced attorney.
You won’t be sent to a case manager who reports to another attorney who reports to the attorney you hired.
Accessibility
It is comforting to know that you have a great attorney working on your case; however, do you have access to the attorney? Does the attorney return phone calls and e-mails in a timely manner? Does the attorney work outside of the hours of 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.?
Do you have the attorney’s mobile number so you can call the attorney when you need advice, guide, and ongoing legal representation?

Know How
That’s right, you need an attorney who knows what he / she is doing.
Likewise, when it comes to personal injury attorneys, it is important for the attorney to know how the process works from pre-suit through trial.
Also, it is important that the attorney is committed to the practice of personal injury law and to the representation of personal injury clients.
