Have you recently been injured in an accident that wasn't your fault? Dozens of personal injury lawyers will be lining up, promising to get you the maximum settlement. But not all lawyers are created equal and choosing the wrong one could cost you thousands.

In this video, I'll reveal the common mistakes people make when hiring a personal injury attorney so you can avoid them. I've been practicing law for over 20 years, so I've seen it all from lawyers who file shoddy lawsuits to those who take a cut and run.

Choosing a lawyer based only on a TV or radio ad is one of the biggest mistakes. Advertising does not prove competence I'll show you the key questions to ask and steps to take to find a truly skilled lawyer who will fight hard for the settlement you deserve.

I know firsthand how confusing and overwhelming this process can be when you're dealing with injuries, medical bills and insurance adjusters. But with the right strategy and the right lawyer on your side, you'll be in a much stronger position to receive fair compensation for your pain and suffering. After watching this video, you'll know how to avoid the common traps and what to look for in a good personal injury attorney.

The key points I wanted to illustrate are:

Advertising alone does not prove a lawyer's competence or track record. Many lawyers spend more on marketing than skills development.

You need an attorney who will aggressively pursue your claim and negotiate hard with insurance companies. Not all lawyers are equally skilled negotiators.

A good lawyer will take the time to understand your specific situation, injuries, expenses and longterm needs to build the strongest possible case. Not all lawyers provide this level of personalized attention.

Choosing the right personal injury lawyer is critical to maximizing the value of your claim and settlement. A skilled attorney can make a big difference in the outcome.

Here are some additional important things to consider when choosing a personal injury lawyer:

• Experience Look for an attorney with a proven track record of handling cases similar to yours. Ask how many injury cases they've settled and for how much.

• Reputation Check online reviews and ask people you trust for recommendations. A good lawyer will have a strong reputation in the legal community.

• Specialization Certain types of injury cases require specialized expertise. Find a lawyer who focuses on your specific type of claim.

• Fees Understand how the lawyer gets paid. Many work on a contingency fee, taking a percentage (often 1/3) of the settlement. Some charge hourly fees.

• Communication A good lawyer will keep you informed, update you regularly on your case status, and take the time to answer your questions thoroughly.

• Investigator A skilled attorney will hire investigators to gather evidence, locate witnesses and build the strongest possible case on your behalf.

• Negotiator Your lawyer should be assertive, strategic and stubborn when negotiating with insurance companies on your settlement. Test how hard they are willing to fight.

• Relationship You'll be working closely together, so make sure you feel comfortable talking openly with the lawyer and trusting them with your case.

• Client testimonials Ask for references from former clients and check online reviews from reputable sources. Speak to past clients if possible.

Thoroughly vet several lawyers before choosing one. A good personal injury attorney can make a huge difference in the justice you receive for your injuries and suffering. Take your time to find the right fit for your specific needs.
