Why should I hire an Ontario personal injury lawyer rather than handle my own case?

When you consider launching a claim for compensation after an accident in Ottawa there are a lot of resources available to you if you want to handle your own case, including the information on this website. However, you must ask whether that is the best course of action for you. There are times when you can handle you own injury case, but other times you should seek professional help from an Ontario personal injury lawyer.

If you have been injured in an Ontario accident and would like advice on how you should go about handling your case, contact the Ottawa personal injury lawyers at Brenda Hollingsworth’s office at +1 (613) 233-4529. We will tell you if you should consider legal advice or handle the case yourself with guidance from an Ontario personal injury lawyer.

What many people do not know is all the work that goes on behind the scenes in preparation for a case. When dealing with insurance companies on more significant injuries, we believe they are more inclined to negotiate a fair settlement when you have a lawyer because they know that a lawyer will go to trial.

Lianne Laing and Brenda Hollingsworth discuss this topic and why hiring an Ontario personal injury lawyer can be beneficial when it comes to preparing the evidence for your case on CTV Morning Live.
