COMMON QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT ASK IF YOU HAVE BEEN IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT ARE:

Should I hire an attorney right away?

Should I talk with the other driver's insurance company?

Should I accept the insurance adjuster's offer of settlement?

What is the first thing I should do after an auto accident?

I was involved in an auto accident and the other driver left, will my insurance company cover the damages and medical expenses?

Should I go to the hospital?

Should I see a chiropractor?

Why do I need an attorney if I got in an auto accident?

There is no cost to you unless we recover - in most cases, we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you need not worry about the attorneys fees to recover for your injuries, unless and until we recover in your case.

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.

FIRST 5 THINGS TO DO WHEN YOU'VE BEEN IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT

FIRST 5 THINGS TO DO WHEN YOU'VE BEEN IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT

If you have a driver license, it is likely that at least once in your lifetime you will be in an auto accident. Here are five immediate tips you can do to help protect yourself or your loved ones.

#1 - Get as much information as you can. Don't just rely on the police to document everything for you; even if you are hurt and do not require immediate medical attention.

#2 - Photograph, Photograph, Photograph! Take photos of all cars involved; especially before the vehicles are moved. This can help prove later on that the accident happened the way you say it happened. Also photograph your visible injuries; this can be important later when your visible injuries have already healed.

#3 - Gather Witness Contact Information - A non-biased witness can be important in proving your side of the accident. The other driver has their own version of what happened, having a witness can be helpful with strengthening your case.

#4 - Get the other driver's personal contact information and their insurance carrier's name and policy number. (see #1)

#5 - Most importantly, go get medical attention if you've been hurt. You don't have to 'tough it out'- if you're hurt, seek medical help.

An Unexpected Picture

I want to paint a picture for you.  I want you to think about your every day transportation commute.  People are taking their kids to school; people are driving to work; people are going to their doctor’s appointments, business meetings and if you’re in our line of work, the court house.  People are going to the grocery store, maybe a restaurant, maybe their friend’s house then on to a movie, etc. You get the point.

Now times that by the 100,000 other drivers driving around Guam around the same time.  100,000 plus strangers who you are putting your body and your life in the hands of every single day you get on the road. You’re counting on these strangers to be good drivers, not to take a drink, not to look at their phone, not to be distracted by the radio, to not be careless, etc.

Every day there is some type of automobile accident in Guam.  Every day some one is getting hurt, they’re getting soft tissue injuries, they’re getting broken bones, they’re getting serious injuries and sometimes people do lose their lives.

Now picture this, these good people, these victims of automobile accidents are counting on the insurance company to be fair.  They’re counting on these people, whose main job is to save their own company money, to be fair to you; to be fair to the person they do not represent.

I want you now to perceive what I’m trying to illustrate for you.  These insurance companies have their own attorneys.  Attorneys that represent the insurance company, who train the insurance adjuster on how to pick apart a claim, so they can try and get away of not paying what the victim truly deserves.

At The Law Office of Mark Williams, we are here to help you level the playing field.  We help you get full compensation for your personal injury.  We know how to negotiate with insurance company, we know how to challenge the insurance company when they try to soften the extent or cause of injuries.  We communicate with insurance adjustors and investigators, ensure all deadlines are met, negotiate for a full and fair settlement, and go to court when necessary to obtain fair compensation for your injuries.

Call now at 637-9620.  Consultations are free.

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.
