When seeking legal assistance for a
personal injury, it's important to consider various factors in selecting the
right firm for you. While things like mental health and psychology might not
initially seem like a factor to consider in your case, they actually intersect
with nearly every stage of a personal injury claim!
At the beginning, an intake
specialist is your first point of contact here at Brooks Injury Law. Their
entire job is to make what can potentially be a very stressful and complicated
process into something that's comfortable and easy to navigate, so a firm that
has intake specialists that are empathetic and use a client-centered
approach is something to look for.
What is a client-centered approach? Like the customer-centric business strategy, in
psychology, a client-centered approach believes that you, the client, should
have a say in all steps of a process, as you are the expert in your life and
the expert in the pain and suffering your injury has caused you.
You should look for these same
traits once a paralegal and attorney are involved, as they will be the main
points of contact throughout your case. Personal injuries are just as mentally
and emotionally traumatic as they can be physically, and for some clients, psychiatric
or therapeutic treatment is vital in helping them not only process and heal the
trauma of a personal injury but navigate the stress that comes with a personal
injury case.
Focusing on your physical and
mental health even comes into play when fully explaining your injuries - the
long-term impact of serious physical injuries can be debilitating, and these
unique factors can affect multiple aspects of your case, including how
much your case may be worth. Consulting with an attorney that wants to know
every single way your life has been impacted by what happened to you is
incredibly beneficial to your personal injury case.
