Appearing in Court

Will My Case Go To Trial?

            People who call us to see about hiring a lawyer for an injury case are often concerned about going to court.  The prospect of having to appear in a court of law is daunting, and many people are understandably reluctant to start a process which will end them up in court.

            The fact is that of the hundreds of personal injury claims made in Maine each year, only a handful ever make it to a trial.  The vast majority of cases are settled before there is a need to even file to begin a lawsuit, and even when a suit is started, most cases settle before a trial becomes necessary.

            So the answer to the question, “Will my case go to trial?” is that the chances of ending up in court are very remote.

            If you have questions about injury cases, you should read our book, Guide for the Prospective Injury Client, which we will send you for free if you ask for it by calling us at 1-800-999-LEGAL(5343) or by filling out the order form on our web site, http://www.lowrylaw.com/reports/the-big-secrets-about-maine-injury-claims-what-no-one-is-telling-you.cfm.
