Our firm recommends that, if you are not at fault in a case and you are contemplating filing a claim against a person or company that caused injuries or a death, you should call our law office (1-302-734-8400) or e-mail us (PI@firststatelawyers.com) as soon as possible and schedule a consultation at no cost to you. As quickly as possible, important evidence and facts that are necessary to prove a case will be gathered and preserved, and witnesses will be interviewed before their memories fade. Furthermore, you will learn about your rights and responsibilities and begin to make informed decisions about important matters such as the payment of medical bills, claiming of lost wages, the payment of repair bills for damage to motor vehicles, and a variety of other matters that are set forth in the insurance contract that exists between you and your insurance carrier.
Under the American civil justice system, injured parties are compensated for the injuries that they have received through no fault of their own by having the person or company that caused the injuries pay money. This money is usually paid by the insurance company of the person or company that caused the injuries. The services of an experienced injury attorney is necessary to receive a fair and reasonable amount of compensation from an individual or company that caused injury or a death.
Of course, if the insurance company that represents the individual or company that caused the injury or death is unwilling to fairly compensate an injured party or family, then the matter must be litigated, or tried in court. Our firm has trial lawyers who are experienced in cases involving personal injury or wrongful death, and they are supported by an experienced litigation team, including paralegals, investigators and accident reconstruction experts.
Another reason to contact our firm immediately after an accident is a Delaware law known as the Statute of Limitations.
Under that law, starting on the day of the accident that caused the injury or death, there is a two-year time frame an injured person is given to file a lawsuit against the party that caused the injuries or death, and if a lawsuit is not filed within that time frame, the injured party or family of the deceased will lose all of their rights against the party that caused the injuries or death.
