Do I need an
Attorney?
You should always consult an attorney regarding
legal matters. Your initial meeting with the attorney
will afford you the opportunity to discuss the facts
and merits of your claim, discuss the law, procedures
and fees. Find out what your attorney can reasonably do
for you. Most consultations are free.

How
long do I have to decide?
The law requires you to settle your claim or start
court proceedings within certain specified time frames.
In many instances specific notice must be given within
a limited time frame. You should consult your attorney. |
