How Often do Personal Injury Claims go to Court?

Carrollton Personal Injury Lawyer
Written By Carrollton Injury Lawyer Joel Hudson

You might be thinking that lawyers are always in court, but that’s pretty far from the truth for personal injury lawyers. Most personal injury claims, for instance for a car accident injury, are settled before stepping foot into a court room.

That doesn’t mean we won’t go to court if we feel like the insurance company isn’t offering the best settlement for our clients, because we certainly will. One of the reasons to retain a personal injury lawyer after your accident is so the insurance company feels the threat of going to court, and only a law firm can make them feel that pressure.

Why Do Most Injury Claims Settle

Going to trial is very expensive for the insurance company when you consider the fees they pay their lawyers and the medical and other experts they have to hire. When they factor in all of these expenses, it’s cheaper for them to settle, because they will be saving the time and money required to go to court.
