Auto Accident Lawyers
The most lucrative settlements result from a team effort. Auto accident lawyers typically convey
settlement offers to clients when received. These offers generally start somewhat low, then over time,
increase sequentially as a result of case development. The development of each case depends on the ability
of an auto accident lawyer to successfully argue liability and damages.
Clients remain free to accept offers at any time. Auto accident lawyers should also provide each client
with a recommendation to ether accept or reject each offer, as well as recommend reductions in settlement
demands when appropriate. The most successful clients are also the most prepared clients who appreciate
special opportunities to increase net recoveries.
Opportunities for auto accident lawyers to increase client recoveries
Each client has a wide assortment of tools and techniques available to increase the total recovery
received. Many lawyers fail to mention these opportunities because time spent may be considered unproductive
for a lawyer working on a contingent fee basis. Just like all other businesses, contingent fee lawyers are
constantly aware of the rate of return on time spent. With each step toward a point of diminishing return,
clients should constantly monitor a lawyer's enthusiasm and may significantly increase recoveries with a few
well-timed requests.
