Answers to common questions about claims and next steps.
Common Questions
If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence (car, truck,
motorcycle, bicycle, or other accidents), you are well advised to speak with a
personal injury attorney. At BENNAIM Law Group, we offer free consultations to
injured individuals who were not at fault.
Many clients begin claims themselves and find it stressful or costly to
coordinate medical care out of pocket. Once retained, we gather the required
information, notify insurance carriers, and direct them to communicate with our
office so you can focus on recovery.
Your interests and the insurer’s interests are not the same. Adjusters may offer
guidance that isn’t in your best interest. Always seek an opinion from a
personal injury lawyer to understand your rights. We provide free consultations
to injured, not‑at‑fault individuals.
No. BENNAIM Law Group never charges for initial consultations, and there are no
up‑front costs to you to speak with us about your potential case.
We work on a contingency‑fee basis: if we do not win, we do not get paid. Our
fee structure is consistent with top personal injury firms handling serious
matters. There are no up‑front costs for representation.
Every case is different. Value depends on liability, injuries, medical
treatment, wage loss, and other damages. Our attorneys draw on extensive
experience to pursue the maximum recovery available for your case.
A personal injury lawyer represents injured people to recover compensation. We
investigate the facts, handle insurer communications, prepare a demand package,
negotiate settlement, and—if needed—file suit and represent you in court. If you
prevail, we help resolve liens and disburse funds properly.
If the at‑fault driver lacks insurance, you may be able to make a claim under
your own policy if you carry uninsured motorist (UM) coverage. We can review
your policy and options with you.
Ask whether the firm actively litigates cases and is prepared to go to trial if
necessary. Some firms that do not litigate may be more likely to settle
prematurely. Our consultations are free and our attorneys have decades of
combined trial experience.
If safe, move yourself/vehicle out of harm’s way; otherwise use hazard
lights.
Check on others and call 911; file a police report to document fault and
details.
