Your personal injury lawyer will need to request a careful history of the accident. He may want to subpoena information from the drivers of the other vehicles. He will look into such factors as the other party's driving history, their psychiatric stability and the testimony of witnesses. An experienced personal injury attorney will also decide whether the civil authorities were at fault. He will look at signage in the area, a history of similar accidents in the past, and the road conditions. He will also inspect any reports of accidents associated with your model car or car rental agency, to determine if manufacturer failure played a role in the crash.

If your personal injury attorney determines that your accident was the result of negligence on the part of some person or a mechanical factor due to manufacturer, car rental, or car repair shop error then he will offer to represent you and do everything in his power to win the legal settlement you have coming. It is important to remember that getting good personal injury representation after a car accident can bring you not only much needed financial compensation, but also peace of mind when the court decides in your favor and decides that another party's negligence led to your injury.
