Q. I need advice on starting negotiations for my pain and suffering settlement because of a car accident.

21 July 2021

A: I hate to say this, but my experience is that you will never get a fair settlement without an attorney. Unless the insurance company legitimately believes that you are prepared and able to put your case in front of a jury, they will never feel the need to pay what your claim is worth. They will lowball you until you accept something. It is my experience that even though a personal injury lawyer will be paid a portion of your final settlement, the amount that you end up with will be more if you are well represented. It's unfortunate but true. We'd be happy to talk to you about your case, and there are plenty of other highly qualified lawyers out there as well. Your "3X meds" is not a bad ballpark in many cases - but that's very general and not always realistic, and very rarely something the insurance company is going to offer without substantial pressure being put on them.

Q. Where do I go to get my possession of controlled substance charges dropped off my record

15 July 2021

A: Easy answer is to call the lawyer who represented you. If that isn't possible, the public defender's office in the county where the conviction occurred can help you. In many counties, you can just call the prosecutor's office. Most of them have an assigned person or team who is taking care of these. Not 100% of cases qualify, but pretty close. If you want to hire someone to go through your history and make these contacts for you, you certainly can do that as well. Offices like mine can certainly get it done for you if you don't want to track them down yourself.

Q. Hi my husband got a letter saying the department of licensing is taken away his driving privilege authority 46.20.207

7 June 2021

A: There are a lot of reasons a notice like that could go out, including just a mistake by DOL. Fixing those things take time, so you should definitely consult with a lawyer as quickly as you can. They'll want to see a copy of the letter he got so they can start working with DOL to remedy the issue before the suspension begins.
