When it comes to injuries from an accident or from the negligence of someone else, it can be difficult to know if you need a personal injury lawyer. To help guide this decision, ask yourself the following questions:

1. Are your injuries long-term or permanently disabling? If yes, a personal injury lawyer can help you deal with the complicated matter of determining adequate compensation and will know how to best pursue this process.
