Minneapolis Accident Lawyer Explores Four Ways to Maximize Your Recovery

If you’ve been in an auto accident in Minneapolis, Minnesota, you may be wondering how much your claim may be worth, and whether you have a case. The value of your claim will depend largely on the nature of your injuries, who is at fault for the accident, and the kind of case your accident attorney can build either inside or outside of court. Getting the best recovery possible if you’ve suffered a personal injury is important. A good recovery can ensure that you receive lost wages and can access the best possible rehabilitative care.

How can you best maximize your recovery? Here are four things to consider:

  1. Document everything. According to com preparation is essential in order to ensure that you get the best possible outcome for your case. Document all medical expense and bills. Keep records of any repairs to property you need to make. When calculating pain and suffering amounts, your accident lawyer will base these figures on the amount of money you’ve paid on medical expenses. Projected medical expenses are often based on your current medical bills. Having thorough records ensures that you’ll be able to build the strongest possible case.
  2. Talk to your attorney about emotional challenges. Too often emotional challenges, stress, and grief following a car accident gets overlooked during a personal injury case. You deserve the best recovery possible. Don’t be afraid to speak to your lawyer about both the tangible and intangible losses you’ve faced since your accident. If you’ve been suffering from insomnia, difficulty concentrating, or have vivid flashbacks of your accident, you may even be suffering from PTSD. Making sure you get diagnosed and get the help you need is important.
  3. Understand your insurance coverage. Reading the fine print on your insurance policy may not sound like the best way to spend an afternoon, but having a clear understanding of what your policy does and doesn’t cover can ensure that you get the best recovery from adjusters. Adjusters will often offer lower estimates initially and sometimes have quite a bit of “wiggle room” when it comes to determining your recovery. Adjusters may be choosing to use lower value estimates, rather than the more realistic higher estimates. A Minneapolis auto accident attorney can review your policy and ensure that your insurance deals with you fairly. More insurers are fighting medical claims. According to the Boston Globe, Geico has gone as far as to sue local chiropractors and other medical professionals. The big insurance companies have lawyers fighting on their side. You need someone fighting for you.
  4. Speak to your attorney. Your attorney will best help you maximize the value of your claim, but your lawyer will need to know all the facts of your case. Inform your lawyer about any pre-existing conditions, as these can have an impact should your case go to court. Don’t understate your role in the accident to your lawyer, either. Your lawyer will need to anticipate any claims the other side might make. Being honest and open will ensure you the best possible outcome.

If you’ve been in a car accident in Minneapolis, Minnesota, an auto accident lawyer can help you fight for your rights. The Law Office of Martin T. Montilino is here for you.
