Do you need a lawyer for a dog bite in East Oakland?
Some people hire a lawyer, others don't need to. Here's a quick, no-pressure guide to help you decide.
When it's usually worth talking to a lawyer
- Your injury needs ongoing treatment, surgery, or left you with a lasting disability
- The insurance company denied, delayed, or lowballed your claim, or fault is disputed
- The other driver was uninsured, or multiple parties are involved (several vehicles, an employer, a company)
When many people handle it without a lawyer
- The injury was minor and you've already fully recovered
- Fault is clear and the insurance company has been cooperative and reasonable
- You just need help finding medical care, not negotiating a settlement
Most California personal injury lawyers offer a free consultation and only get paid if you win, so talking to one costs nothing. You generally have 2 years from the accident to file a claim (sometimes just 6 months against a government agency), so don't wait too long to find out.
