One of the biggest myths about lawyers is that they all share the same amount of experience and training. The fact is that the experience and training can vary greatly. Some lawyers may claim to have decades of experience, but that may be drafting wills and dealing with real estate transactions.

Big corporations and insurance companies can have many well-paid, savvy lawyers who are trained to be tough negotiators. An experienced personal injury lawyer has experienced hundreds of negotiations involving hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. Most personal injury cases settle outside of the courtroom, which is where these negotiations would take place.

Some lawyers may have so many cases that they hardly ever look at them. Your personal injury lawyer should have the resources needed to dedicate to your case and vital to getting you fair compensation for your case.
