Why do I need an attorney if I know there is "clear liability" on the other party's part?

The other side will be more willing to settle for a fairer amount if it means he's otherwise going to avoid having to pay a part of those grossly inflated attorney's fees you said he would be responsible for paying.

you probably don't

some people are worried they'll be taken advantage of by the adjuster (which does happen). my ex tried to handle a claim herself and the adjuster told her that when she accepted the settlement (less than medicals. no chiro and legit doctors and PT), THEN he would pay for the meds (a lie)

other people have no idea to make their case valuable. again, i told you what to attack: chiropractors. those are the engine that make PI valuable, b/c most of these cases do not involve major injuries. these firms make major money churning out small cases constantly and not big licks. those cases are rare...fruitful, but rare. you can't keep a PI firm going on waiting for death cases
