You might not always need an attorney when you have suffered personal injury, but chances are it is a better choice to retain one from the start. It is unfortunate these days that liability and fault can be so hotly contested when it seems to be more clear-cut in your own opinion. But that is the world we live in now, and you are better off prepared than caught off guard when injury compensation is on the line.
