Do you need an Attorney if you have minor injuries from an Auto Accident?

Legal assistance is crucial anytime insurance talks are initiated.

Insurance adjusters tend to offer a less than fair settlement for medical expenses, lost wages, and other expenses. Many victims accept these settlements only to find out later that the money does not cover all the past, current, and future accident-related expenses. A settlement prohibits the victim from going to court for the rest of the needed money.

Hiring a lawyer when negotiating an insurance settlement or any other type of settlement will help avoid receiving an unfair settlement.

Injured in an accident! Now what?!

There are a number of sources from which the injury can arise, and the injury itself can be either emotional or physical. Some of the more common types of personal injuries include automobile accidents, slips and falls, product liability, assault and battery, and medical malpractice. One of the key purposes of filing a personal injury action is to figure out who was responsible for the injury and to make certain that the party or parties responsible provide just compensation to the injured individual. If you or someone you know has been injured by the careless or negligent actions of someone else, we can help!

You should be aware that as the injured party, you are legally entitled to receive damages, some of which include compensation for your loss of income, past and future medical bills, damages for both your emotional and physical pain and suffering, and damages for disfigurement. Additionally, there are occasions in which a spouse or close family member may also be entitled to damages for what’s referred to as loss of consortium (which is when a person loses the companionship of the injured or deceased individual). Moreover, there may be instances in which punitive damages may be awarded in cases where the defendant’s conduct was especially egregious and the court or jury finds that the defendant should be punished by paying additional amounts over and above the injured party’s actual damages.

Attorney Mark is a skilled Guam personal injury attorney and he can discuss with you about your case and you will also learn that there are some occasions in which the defendant’s conduct, questionable as it may seem, might not give rise to damages. For example, when individuals knowingly and willfully decide to take on a known hazard, the law notes that he or she has “assumed the risk” of injury and accordingly, the defendant should not be held liable for that injury.

As you can see, personal injury cases can involve a number of issues that will have to be dealt with before you or your loved one can move on to the next chapter in life. That is why it is important that you have a knowledgeable personal injury attorney by your side to help you revolve those issues as quickly as possible and get you the just compensation that you deserve.

PERSONAL INJURY – BODILY INJURY - #1 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION

What’s My Case Worth?

Your case must be thoroughly investigated and reviewed at all angles.  Any lawyer who gives an opinion before that is either incompetent or lacks the experience needed to win your case.  Your attorney is going to look at all of your proof; the nature and extent of your injuries, your medical records from the accident, how your accident occurred and what other damages you incurred just for starters, and as an example. 

Attorney Mark Williams has over 22 years of experience coupled with the reputation of ‘getting the job done’ and protecting our clients’ rights while getting them the maximum compensation that they deserve.

Why do I need a Personal Injury Lawyer?

If you have been involved in accident to no fault of your own; you need a lawyer that specializes in personal injury to protect your rights!

Insurance companies are armed with attorneys. The insurance company’s focus is to save their company money. The insurance company will find excuses to make a low settlement or no settlement at all.  Denied claims and lower benefits save money for their company.  They don’t care about how serious your injuries are or what it will take for you to get your life back on track. This is main reason why you need a personal injury attorney to represent you.  

The Law is on YOUR Side!

Make sure you receive fair treatment from the insurance company. Contact us for a free consultation.

Feeling like you got hit by a Mack Truck?

QUICK NOTE ON UNDERSTANDING A PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Feeling like you got hit by a Mack Truck?

At the Law Office of Mark Williams we generally see two types of injury cases, we have the obvious severely injured and the injured who don't know they are injured until a couple of days after the accident.

The cases where our clients have severe injuries, they are so severe they are taken from the scene of the accident in an ambulance with broken bones; or injuries that require surgery and/or require an extended stay in the hospital.

The type of injury that may or may not be apparent immediately is usually the cases where our client has suffered soft tissue injuries. Soft tissue injuries can consist of strained or sprained muscles, tendons and ligaments. 

It is much harder to prove that soft tissue injures were actually caused by the accident than the severe injuries - the medical care that you receive is an extremely important part of your personal injury case.

Foremost, without medical care that documents and supports your injury claim, you will not have any injury claim. Without the medical care and its corresponding documentation the insurance company will, without a doubt take the position that you were not hurt.

Slip-and-Fall Accidents

Slip and Fall accidents  in Guam are one of the most common accidents next to motor vehicle accidents. However, in most automobile accidents it is easy to determine who the at fault driver and this is not the case with most slip-and-fall accidents which occur in establishments for the public, such as grocery stores, restaurants, etc.. where it is not uncommon to find spilled liquid products or foreign objects on the floor.

As in any premises liability claim, one should do their best to document the circumstances of the injury and the defective condition that caused the injury. 

All property owners have a duty to maintain their property in a reasonably safe condition. Unfortunately, many businesses do not keep their premises safe. 

If you have fallen and have been injured on someone else´s property, you may claim reasonable compensation.  Attorney Mark has over 20+ experience in advocating our client’s rights in receiving the maximum settlement compensation.
