The unfortunate truth is that even when you get injured in a car accident that is not your fault, there is never any guarantee that your medical bills or auto repair bills will be covered. Your insurance provider could decide that they do not want to pay your claim or you could get in an accident with someone who does not have insurance (or at least doesn’t even enough insurance). It is when you find yourself in a difficult situation financially after an automobile accident that was not your fault, that you should try reaching out to an auto accident lawyer in Chicago for assistance. You just need to sit down with the auto accident lawyer and explain to them that you got in an automobile accident that was not your fault, that you need help paying your bills and that no one is willing to help you. The lawyer will look at your case and determine what to do next.
One of the biggest reasons why someone hesitates to hire an Auto Accident Lawyer Chicago, or does not even consider it, is because they do not know how to pay for the lawyer. An auto accident attorney is a personal injury lawyer. This means that the vast majority of the time they work on a contingency basis. While this does mean they are not going to take your case unless they think it can win, they are not going to require payment unless they win your case either. This gives you the opportunity to just pay the lawyer with the money you receive as a result of winning the lawsuit or during the settlement. Your lawyer is going to do what they can to prevent you from having to actually go to court. They are going to sit down with the insurance provider you are trying to get money from and they will try to come to a settlement. A settlement is just where the insurance provider agrees to pay a certain amount so the lawsuit does not have to go to court. You would just have to sign some paperwork saying that you would not take any additional legal actions against them in connection to this accident.
