What should you expect from your personal injury lawyer? Attorney Joe Zarzaur breaks this down into basically three components: Professionalism, Personability and Aggression.
PROFESSIONALISM MEANS COMPETENCY.
I think you should expect your personal injury attorney to be prepared and I think you should expect them to be aggressive. Your personal injury lawyer should also be competent. Florida has made that quite easy because Florida allows personal injury lawyers to become board certified. So, an attorney goes to law school, they take the bar exam, they become a lawyer, they have a billboard, an ad, and they are on Google saying they’re a personal injury lawyer. Anybody that has a law degree can do that.
What the Florida bar has said is if a lawyer wants to specialize in a certain area like personal injury or civil litigation, they can actually get board certified in that specialty, but only 1% of Florida lawyers that have Florida bar licenses actually get the civil trial board certification. So, when it comes to being professional, you should hire a board-certified civil trial lawyer for your personal injury case that assures you that your lawyer has the expertise, the knowledge, and the experience to handle your case.
BOARD CERTIFICATION MEANS MORE
You may be thinking, well, “Hey, maybe this is going to cost more money”. NO. Virtually every personal injury lawyer in Florida charges the same, NO FEE, NO COST, unless you win. Pretty much all personal injury attorneys charge the same fee - One third and 40% (if your case goes to trial), in fact, those rates are published in the bar materials that allow lawyers to just use the form.
So, if the form is exactly the same, and for the same price as a regular personal injury lawyer, why shouldn't always get a board-certified lawyer? You should always hire a better quality or higher credentialed person. If, if it's the same, no fee, no cost, unless you win.
PERSONAL AND APPROACHABLE
The personal component or being personable means an attorney can relate to the client. You don't want to have a lawyer that you're scared to call, that you can't really talk to because they speak in “Lawyer” terms that's not comfortable with for you.
You want to talk to a lawyer, that's going to talk to you a normal way, who is not going to talk down to you or use fancy legal terms or medical terms. They're actually going to try to relate to you in a way that's akin to a normal conversation.
AGGRESSIVE
You always want to find a law firm that's going to take your case and run with it. You don't want a lawyer that's going to take your case and spend three weeks trying to figure out whether or not they should take it. You want a lawyer that's going to spend as much time as they need to with you in that initial meeting, and then they're going to run with the ball.
We pride ourselves here at Zarzaur Law as being aggressive in the sense that we take every case (no matter how small or big it is) and we push it as hard as we possibly can until we get a result. Sometimes that means we go to trial, sometimes that means we settle it by mediation, and sometimes that means we settle it before having to do any formal process.
