Claim Assessment - When a claim is filed, an assessment is made to ensure you have a valid case. This assessment examines injury/accident details, evidence, damages suffered, medical expenses, cost of future care, and the negligence of the other party during your free consultation.

 

Investigation - If you have a qualified case, a thorough examination of your brain injury will begin immediately to preserve evidence. Negligent parties will also be notified, and demand will be issued for the preservation of all evidence, including photographs, medications, medical records, and other data.

 

File and Complaint - Once your evidence is preserved, a lawsuit will be filed against all parties who are deemed negligent in the accident/injury.

 

Case Discovery - This is where case information is requested from the other parties, conduct depositions, interview witnesses, and obtain expert analyses, injury reconstruction, and medical evidence to build a solid case.

 

Begin Mediation - Victims and defendants will attend mediation to determine if a fair settlement can be reached. During mediation, a negotiator will attempt to make a settlement to compensate for pain, suffering, and other damages. The majority of brain injury lawsuits will settle before going to trial.

 

Go to Trial - If no settlement is reached in mediation, the lawsuit will proceed to trial. A jury or judge will hear the case.  Attorney's will present evidence and participate in closing arguments.
