Not every Long Beach car accident requires the assistance of a lawyer. Some small fender benders can be handled on your own. However, there are some situations where you need to talk to a Long Beach car accident attorney.

Below are scenarios where a Long Beach auto accident attorney might be just what you need:

1. Serious injuries occurred. Unfortunately, the more serious the injuries, the more you need an attorney’s help.  You need to ensure that you are fairly compensated by the at-fault driver’s insurance company.  That means you need to understand the true value of your case, including the amount of damages for lost wages, medical bills and other costs associated with your injuries.
2. The insurance company is being difficult.  It seems simple – you are injured in a Long Beach accident caused by the other driver, so you file a claim with the insurance company. The insurer should pay you for your injuries, right?  Insurance companies are notorious for being difficult to work with and you better believe that they will put up a fight.
3. There’s a dispute over who caused the accident.  Most personal injury lawyers offer free initial consultations, so it doesn’t hurt to at least get some advice.  You have more to lose by not calling an attorney.
