SHOULD I SEE AN ATTORNEY BEFORE MY EVALUATION?

Patients have important legal as well as health care needs that need to be addressed. In most cases, it is important to be evaluated by a clinic first. That way the findings from your exam will give you the information you need in order to decide on which attorney is necessary. If you already have an attorney, the office will send detailed reports to your attorney as you are undergoing treatment to keep your legal counsel apprised of your progress. Upon completion of treatment a final narrative report is then forwarded to the patient's attorney documenting any permanent damage or functional loss. An attorney who specializes in injury accidents is a wise choice in these circumstances. They know the law and your rights and are better equipped to communicate with aggressive or intimidating insurance representatives to help you get the care and other benefits to which you are entitled. In these cases, the office can refer you to a reputable and qualified attorney.
