Frequently Asked Questions

Auto Accident Lawyer in Greenville

Why do I need an attorney? 

When you are involved in an auto accident involving injuries, you may find yourself not knowing exactly what actions to take to resolve your claim.  If you are approached by the other party's insurance company, they may attempt to quickly settle your claim in order to cut their costs.  Not knowing the full extent of your injuries following an accident makes it unwise to accept a settlement so soon thereafter.  Having a Greenville car accident attorney review your case to ensure you receive the treatment you deserve will protect your rights to the compensation you deserve.

What is my case worth?

All claims are different.  Depending on the extent of your injuries and the severity of the accident, your medical treatment necessary to recover is often what dictates the value of your case.  If you will require lengthy and costly medical care, or if your life has been seriously impacted by the injury, your case will be worth more than a person who sustained a minor injury.  The Burch Law Office will review your accident and injuries when documenting your claim in order to ensure you are well compensated for your loss.

How long does a case take to settle?

Our firm believes in obtaining your settlement as quickly as possible.  However, your treatment for your injuries should be stabilized or completed prior to a settlement being negotiated.  Therefore the length of your medical treatment will have something to do with how long your case takes to settle.  If your case requires litigation in order to obtain the compensation you deserve, this could take several months as your case goes through the courts.

How do you obtain your fee?

Our firm is paid on a contingency fee basis, meaning that we get paid when we successfully settle your case, from the proceeds obtained for you.
