  • Who should I talk to?

    Don't talk about your injuries or your case with anyone except your own doctor or the best personal injury attorney in South Bend, IN you can find. Talking to anyone else could weaken any potential case you might have.

  • What should I sign?

    Absolutely do not sign anything until you have talked with or had a face to face conference with your attorney. By signing the wrong document you can certainly hurt your own case and lessen the odds of having a fair financial recovery.


    Make sure every move is the right one—get guidance from the best personal injury attorney in South Bend, IN today.

  • What should I say to people who call me?

    If anyone calls you and asks you about your case, politely inform them that your lawyer doesn't want you to talk about your injuries or your case. Refer them to your attorney—and if you haven’t hired one yet, now’s the time to contact the best personal injury attorney in South Bend, IN.

  • What should I do with all my medical items?

    Save all medical items that you get, including:


    • Pill Bottles
    • Prescriptions
    • Casts and Braces
    • Medical Bills, Invoices, and Statements
    • All other items that you get from your doctor, the pharmacy, hospitals, or medical centers

  • Why do personal injury cases last so long?

    Unfortunately, personal injury cases and accident claims seem to move slowly, as much as I personally wish they didn't. However, until you have fully recovered from your injuries or you have otherwise stabilized, it's unwise to attempt to settle your claim. For the best results and the best settlement possible, it's important to be as patient as possible. That's always my mission, and that's what I do best! According to the Insurance Research Council, individuals with legal representation obtain settlements 3.5 times higher than those without, which is why I’m here: to protect your claim, fight for full value, and make patience pay off.
