What Role Might Expert Witnesses Play in My Case?

Depending on the facts surrounding your case and the opposing party’s willingness to cooperate, we may call on various expert witnesses to assist with building your claim, and perhaps to provide deposition during discovery. We work with a network of highly accomplished experts in a wide array of fields whose deposition often plays an essential role in determining the outcome of car accident cases.

Below are a few examples of expert witnesses who might contribute to your case:

  • Medical Experts: It goes without saying that healthcare is a broad field that encompasses countless areas of specialization. Our Spartanburg car accident attorney work with occupational therapists, psychologists, neurologists, surgeons, and a multitude of other healthcare professionals who can provide insight into a diagnosis, the cost of care, and the expected trajectory of an injured person’s recovery.
  • Accident Reconstruction Experts: Proving negligence and liability can be challenging under some circumstances. Accident reconstruction experts specialize in investigating collisions, determining how they happened, and creating visual representations to help the judge and jury discern liability.
  • Vocational Experts: If you had to miss work due to your injuries, a vocational expert can help explain why you were unable to return to work and/or how your job performance may suffer as a result of your condition.
  • Financial Experts: If your injuries will cause long-term or permanent complications, you might incur many years or perhaps a lifetime of damages. A financial expert can help your Spartanburg car accident lawyer approximate a fair value for future damages.

 

Qualities That Make Us A Good Choice For You

If your financial future is at stake, you want to make sure you do everything you can to give your case the best possible chance of success. But with several car accident lawyers in Spartanburg to choose from, it can be difficult to determine which attorney is best suited to handle your case.

The importance of finding the right attorney cannot be overstated. When making your hiring decision, you should consider the lawyer’s experience, knowledge, and track record of success in similar cases. You should also read reviews from past clients.

At Hodge Law Firm, we have the legal strategies and resources to provide effective representation at all stages of settlement negotiations and potential litigation. Let’s look at some of the qualities of our law firm that makes us a good choice for you.

  • We Have a Track Record of Success in Litigation: Most personal injury cases do not proceed to trial, but it may still be necessary to file a lawsuit and enter litigation if the opposing party is uncooperative. In fact, hiring a lawyer with litigation experience can be useful even during the initial settlement negotiations. When an insurer is made aware that you have a seasoned trial lawyer by your side, they may be more inclined to cooperate to avoid the cost and hassle of facing a lawsuit. If your case does proceed to discovery, our skilled legal team will know how best to represent your interests.
  • We Have Decades of Collective Experience: Insurers employ all manner of strategies to deny and reduce the value of personal injury claims. Our team of professionals has over 50 years of experience working with claims adjusters and an in-depth knowledge of the tactics these professional negotiators use to challenge cases.
  • We Are Accessible to Our Clients: From settlement negotiations to litigation, a personal injury case can be a daunting experience for accident victims and their families. Getting prompt answers to your questions can help put your mind at ease. Our Spartanburg car accident attorney will make every reasonable effort to be accessible when you need us most. Our team of personal injury professionals strives to return emails and phone calls promptly, and we will keep you updated on the status of your case throughout the proceedings.

Compassion: When hiring a personal injury attorney, many people focus only on the lawyer’s experience and credentials. But it is important to remember that you may be working with the attorney for several months. Having a lawyer who genuinely cares about your case can make all the difference. At Hodge Law Firm, we won’t treat you like just another number; we will do everything we can to pursue the settlement you deserve and to minimize the stress on you and your loved ones throughout the proceedings.
