Three Questions Our Attorneys Are Frequently Asked
The full consequences of any personal injury differ depending on the type of injury. We have helped clients throughout Iowa recover from injuries such as motor vehicle accidents, carbon monoxide poisoning, farm injuries, malpractice and workplace injuries.
When clients come to our Council Bluffs office for help, they often have questions about their case. To help you get the information you are looking for, we have answered some common initial questions here:
What is my personal injury claim worth?
A personal injury claim should provide compensation for the total cost of your injuries, including expenses like lost income, loss of future earning potential, cost of relocating or renovating your home to accommodate your disability, hospital bills, physical therapy, pain and suffering, and loss of long-term relationships.
Why do I need to call a personal injury lawyer?
If you were hurt in an accident, you may have already received a settlement offer from an insurance company, leaving you uncertain what a lawyer can do for you. As your legal representation, we can act on your behalf to negotiate for the full and fair compensation you deserve, reduce the time it takes to earn that compensation and help you avoid costly mistakes that would keep you from that settlement.
How long do I have to file a claim for my accident?
In Iowa, you have two years from the date of your injury to file a claim. While this may seem like a long time, you may not be able to wait that long for the settlement you need. The sooner you initiate your claim by talking to us, the sooner we can provide you with the compensation you deserve.
