WhY Legal Help Matters
Why Legal
Help Matters
Insurance companies are not on your side. Their goal is to limit payouts and protect their bottom line. Without experienced legal representation, you may be offered a settlement far below what your case is worth.
At Bryan K. Harris, P.C., our attorneys have the experience, resources, and negotiation skills to handle complex auto accident cases from start to finish. We prepare every case as if it will go to trial and fight for the maximum compensation available under the law.
What Compensation Can Cover
What Compensation Can Cover
After a serious auto accident, victims often face overwhelming financial stress in addition to physical and emotional pain. Compensation in a personal injury case may include:
Medical Expenses, Hospital Bills, & Future Treatment Costs
Lost Income & Loss of Earning Potential
Rehabilitation & Physical Therapy
Pain & Suffering
No amount of money can undo the damage caused by a catastrophic accident. However, a successful legal claim can relieve the financial burden placed on you and your family and provide some measure of accountability for those responsible.
