Personal Injury or Wrongful Death Claim and Litigation Process

A personal injury can be a traumatic occurrence for anyone involved as a victim or family member of a victim. We find that most of our personal injury clients are victims for the first time, and have hired us to assist in navigating through the process. We have provided this walk-through guide for clients and perspective clients of the claim and litigation process that is typical in a Maryland Personal Injury or wrongful death claim to provide a better understanding for what to expect when working with our office to file a personal injury claim or lawsuit.

• Initial Consultation - Initial meeting with the managing attorney and often members of the staff who will be working on your claim regularly.


• Medical Care - Most accident or injury victims have already been to the hospital or a doctor/therapist before coming to see us. Medical care will continue throughout most of the claim process, appropriate to the injuries caused by the negligence.


• Medical Records and Bills - Our office will work to collect all records and billing for the treatment obtained as a result of injuries sustained in the incident.


• Personal Injury Diary - We ask clients of serious injuries to track issues they have as their recovery progresses.


• Missing time from work and Lost Wages - Lost wage claims are often a significant part of a serious injury claim. We work with clients and their employers to obtain the necessary documentation to substantiate these claims.


• The Demand Package - Our opportunity to explain your damages to the at-fault insurance company. This package includes medical records and bills from your injury claim.


• The Negotiation Process - We work diligently on your behalf to obtain a settlement that reflects the value of your claim. Our goal is to maximize the in-pocket proceeds to our client in the settlement process.


• Litigation - When there is a significant dispute as to liability in a claim, or the overall value of the claim between us an the insurance company, we file a lawsuit on behalf of our client.
