What should I bring with me for my initial consultation with an injury lawyer?

What to Bring to Your Initial Consultation with an Injury Lawyer

As a lawyer, I would advise you to bring the following items with you for your initial consultation with an injury lawyer:

  1. Relevant documents: Bring any documentation related to your injury including medical records, police reports, insurance policies, and any correspondence you have had with insurance companies or other parties involved in the incident.
  2. Identification: Bring proper identification such as a driver's license or passport.
  3. Questions: Make a list of questions you have about the legal process, your case, and the lawyer's experience.
  4. Witness information: If you have any witness information, bring their contact information.
  5. Photographs: Bring any photographs of the accident, injuries, or property damage.
  6. Legal fees: Ask the lawyer about their fees and bring any funds necessary for the initial consultation.

It is important to note that the specific documents and information needed may vary based on the specific circumstances of your case. If you are unsure about what to bring or have any additional questions, it is best to contact the attorney's office ahead of time to ask. In some cases, the lawyer may also ask for additional information or documentation after the initial consultation.
