While this may seem impractical to most people, those of us in this industry understand why this happens, and we deal with it. Trust me, we don't like it either. However, the one thing we don't enjoy is when a client become his own worst enemy. It has happened to every personal injury attorney. My first client who killed his case came into my office on a Monday morning telling me how much pain he was in. I believed him. The next day, he was on the cover of the Newspaper giving an interview in his work-out clothes and discussing his work-out regime. He wasn't a client after that. Although this is an extreme example of how someone can hurt their own cases, there are other ways, more subtle ways.

For example, personal Injury cases open the books to the victims previous medical conditions which may have some relationship to the damages being alleged by the victim in this action. Let's say you had a prior neck surgery as a result of an old football or cheerleading injury. As a claimant, you must be open and honest with your attorney and disclose all of your previous medical issues. It is better to be open and honest, rather than trying to hide the previous neck surgery. It will come out sooner or later, and then you look like the bad guy or girl. Trust me, the insurance company is looking for anyway not to pay you the value of your case. Therefore, you don't need to give them additional ammunition. If you have something that embarasses you, we can deal with it, just let us know.

This is just an example of one of the ways in which you can hurt your case. Other examples include: Giving recorded statements to the insurance company, Completing insurance forms without your attorney reviewing same, etc.

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 13:31:12 -0500 What To Do If You Are In A Car Accident In Florida. As a personal injury attorney, I see the devastation that follows a car accident each and every day. Think about it, you are driving along without a care in the world, all things seem to be going your way, and then Wham, another driver was not paying attention, and you wake up in the hospital. Who is going to pay your bills? Who is going to fix your car? These and other questions are normally asked when a client contacts us for the first time. The most important things to remember after you are in a car accident are:
