Understanding Your Initial Consultation
Meeting with an Ohio injury lawyer can help you determine the right course of action after you have been injured. This applies whether you were in a car accident or suffered an on-the-job (“workers comp”) injury.
Each injury case is unique and requires careful consideration. We aim to help you understand what happens during your consultation, what to bring, and how we help you move forward with confidence.
What Happens During a Consultation?
During a consultation with our law firm, we provide background information about who we are, what we do, and how we strive to help our clients. We will ask potential clients basic background questions to understand their situation.
We will discuss the details of the accident or crash and how it has affected the client. We also discuss what the client expects from our representation. We listen to our client’s concerns and strive to answer all questions fully and accurately.
After we have an understanding of the case, we will discuss how we anticipate the case should proceed.
The first step to recovery is understanding your options, and that starts with a conversation you can trust.
Preparing for Your Meeting
Documents to Bring to Your Consultation
Generally, you do not need to bring anything to a consultation with McKenzie & Snyder. However, it is often helpful to bring certain documents so that we may be able to better advise you about your case.
Helpful documents include:
- Accident or crash reports
- BWC claim forms
- Photographs
- Witness statements
- Medical records
- Medical bills
If you do not have these documents, we will generally retrieve them for you.
Cost of Meeting with an Attorney
At McKenzie & Snyder, we offer free, no-obligation consultations. Further, we can often arrange to meet with you somewhere outside of our office that is more convenient for you.
Finally, we generally take cases on a contingency fee basis. This means our services are paid through the proceeds of your case, so you never have to pay any money up-front or pay a bill from our firm.
Our Commitment to Clients
Whether you have injured your low back, neck, shoulder, suffered a burn injury, or were involved in a car wreck, we will listen to your concerns. We strive to represent your interests to the best of our ability.
