Is there a legit car accident lawyer anyone would recommend to go speak with or is everyone like Morris Bart?

Is everything based off injuries?

If you wernt taken to the ER by ambulance or if the driver wasn't impaired then good luck finding someone who will represent you.

Make sure you always complain of headaches and get them on record with your doc.

Otherwise, your attorney can't get as much out of the insurance company.

No.

Nah. I'd base a settlement request on the expense of the defense counsel's suit.

I do practice personal injury, but not in BR, so I have no skin in this game and can give you a honest piece of advice.

Look for a firm that doesn't advertise, BUT is larger than just a one man shingle. You want a firm with a budget and resources, but not one so big that you are just thrown into the pot with all of the other BS cases they pick up off of their advertising. Firms that advertise spend a lot of their time simply filtering which clients they want to keep, one man shops tend to spend their time focused on bigger cases and keeping their staff paid.

There is a happy middle ground that you can find if you do some research.

Pretty much, if there is just vehicle damage and no injuries then an attorney will represent you , but will make you pay an hourly rate, plus all court and filling costs, this quickly makes this a losing proposition

If you are "injured" then they will take the case on contingency and you pay nothing up front and they get a percent of winnings, and this is where the trouble comes in

Have your accident in Texas so you can hire the Texas Law Hawk.

I'd stay away from any plaintiff atty who advertises on a bill board. IF you can get past the initial call screener, whose job it is is to weed out the small potato claims ( funny how so many of the "little people" they claim to represent fail here ) ask her if the firm uses a chiropractor as its main treating physician. She answers in the affirmative, move on. Ask if an atty will handle your case, NOT a paraglegal...which is illegal anyway. Do find out exactly what their fee will be, including all expenses they will front.
