Choosing a good Michigan personal injury lawyer is the first step in ensuring a good outcome for your case and a positive experience. A good lawyer puts you at ease, helps you feel confident about your case because of his or her preparation. Choosing the wrong lawyer, on the other hand, can result in months of worry and frustration even if you eventually win your case.

But whether you’re looking for a personal injury attorney in Detroit, Michigan, or anywhere else in the United States, it’s important to hire a good attorney who works well with you. Here’s what to look for:
Works on a contingency fee basis — Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency basis, which means you don’t pay unless you are awarded money through a settlement or trial verdict. Do not trust a lawyer who does not work on a contingency fee basis. Also be sure that your attorney doesn’t have additional fees and expenses you’ll end up paying if you lose your case. At Sachs Waldman, you don’t pay a dime unless you win your case.
Advances all expenses for your case — Personal injury torts can be expensive, especially if your case goes to trial. You don’t need these additional costs when your injury is already racking up medical bills and preventing you from earning an income. Good injury law firms advance all expenses out of their own accounts and only collect reimbursement for those expenses if you win your case. That’s the way Sachs Waldman works.
Returns calls immediately and is a good communicator — When you don’t understand your case or know what’s going on with it, the resulting anxiety and worry can be overwhelming. Make sure the firm you hire is known for returning calls quickly and keeping clients abreast of their case the way Sachs Waldman does.
Will handle your case personally and represent you rather than passing your case to a less experienced personal injury attorney or law firm — Throughout Detroit, injury lawyers and law firms spend big money advertising on billboards, television and radio, making big promises of cash for injury victims. Unfortunately, many of these firms are little more than referral houses who pass cases on to less experienced attorneys and firms who help pay for the expensive advertising. Make sure the attorney you meet with is the one who will be handling your case and who will represent you in court before signing any papers. At Sachs Waldman, we’ll have it no other way.
Specializes in the type of injury you’re dealing with — Cases involving traumatic brain injury are significantly different than auto accident injuries or product liability cases without brain injuries. Brain injury cases have unique elements and, often, different laws apply. Make sure your attorney has significant experience handling the type of injury involved in your case. If possible, choose a lawyer who deals exclusively with your type of injury. At Sachs Waldman, we have attorneys with extensive experience in every type of injury.
You find him/her easy to get along with — It’s important that you be comfortable with your attorney. Clients who don’t like their personal injury lawyer tend to get anxious and worrisome and don’t open up to their lawyer, which often leads to important information not being communicated. Sachs Waldman clients typically say they enjoy working with our Detroit injury lawyers and feel comfortable and open when talking to them.
