Good Ottawa Lawyers Don’t Call You First

OTTAWA PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER – If you are in a serious accident in Ottawa, there is a good chance you will spend time in the Ottawa Rehabilitation Centre on Smyth Road. If you do, there is a very good chance that you will be approached or solicited by a lawyer or a paralegal on behalf of a lawyer. How do I know? Because I have been in to the hospital visit my clients and they have a stack of other Ottawa lawyers’ business cards on their bed side table.

Quite frankly, hiring a lawyer just because he/she pops into your room at the hospital is not a great idea. For many people who are seriously injured in an accident, your claim may amount to millions of dollars. And it might take several years to finalize. For that kind of money and that kind of a time commitment, it is always a good idea to conduct research and take your time before hiring a lawyer.

There are many excellent personal injury lawyers in Ottawa who can handle your serious accident case. Very few, if any, of these excellent personal injury lawyers make unsolicited trips to the hospitals to troll for clients. However, all of them will come to the hospital to meet with you if they are asked.

If you need information on how to hire a personal injury lawyer, contact us to ask for a copy of Hiring a Great Lawyer. The book was written by a non-lawyer out of Seattle Washington. However, we think it has very valuable information that all prospective clients should consider. We have several copies we will provide to you at no charge. Please email us at [email protected] for your copy of Hiring a Great Lawyer. There is no obligation and it is totally free.
