Custom Legal Help- House Calls and Hospital Visits

This is individualized legal help at its foundation and best.

Not everyone can come to a lawyer.

You may be home bound, not have a ride, or in a hospital.

You should have a lawyer who will be able to come see you where you are to help you out.

The legal system often requires you to file applications online or with specific forms, or you may need to notify an insurance company of your situation.

A lawyer who comes to your home or hospital room can get your disability or your off work benefits started, and protect your rights under the law.

Make sure that you get your legal help right away. This will insure that you have the correct information and respond to the insurance company in a way that protects your interests.

Important Things To Tell Your Doctor About Your Injuries

No matter the type of injury you have, whether it be a work injury, a motor vehicle injury or a social security disability condition, the most important thing to do is give your doctor details.

The reason is that the people who decide your case: a Judge, an Arbitrator or an Administrative Law Judge rely heavily on what is written in your medical records.

If you testify in court that your injury happened in a certain way and it is described differently or not explained at all in your records then you will most likely lose your case.

If you testify in court that you are in pain most of the day and it is hard for you to concentrate and the doctor does not write this in his notes, then you most likely lose your case.

If you testify in court that your medicines make you sleepy and tired all day and the medical records show that you have no side effects from your medicine, then you will have problems.

What you must do is explain in detail to your doctors your problems and how they came about.

For instance, “I fell at work and it twisted my back. It is hard for me to walk and stand during the day”.

“My pain medicine makes me sleepy and I have to take a nap every afternoon.”

Some people take a paper to their doctor with a brief list of their problems so that it is easy and clear for the medical staff.

Credibility- How to Help Your Injury Case

Credibility means that you are believable and the Judge or Jury leans toward your version of events.

Credibility is important in work injury cases, personal injury cases and Social Security Disability cases.

The most important factors that enhance your credibility include how medical providers view you, how your documents support your claim, and how your testimony supports your claim.

Medical records provide a snapshot of what you told nurses and doctors at or near the time of your accident. This is viewed as important because you did not have time to reflect and possibly exaggerate your pain or the cause of your accident. Make sure that you go to the doctor right away and explain all your injuries, how the accident happened, and what limitations you are experiencing.

Documents such as police reports and accident reports corroborate your testimony regarding the cause of accident and how you were injured. Inconsistent testimony with these documents will harm your case.

Your testimony should be consistent with medical records and accident reports. Your testimony should be believable.

Exaggeration will damage your case.

Arguments with opposing lawyers, the Judge or Arbitrator will make you look bad and make it easier to deny or reduce the value of your case.
