Tom Reuland recently gave a presentation about how, when and why an attorney who does not focus on personal injury law should refer a case to a seasoned personal injury attorney. This presentation was created for the legal community. However, it also has helpful information for injured people in Illinois who may be wondering whether it is worthwhile to hire a personal injury attorney.
The Illinois Institute of Continuing Legal Education (IICLE) recently asked attorney Tom Reuland of Reuland Law, LLC, to provide an accredited continuing legal education course. The course addresses nuances of personal injury work that attorneys who do not focus their practice on personal injury law might miss.
"Injured clients are best served by an attorney who dedicates their practice to personal injury work," Reuland commented. "Not only will clients receive larger settlements and judgments, but referring attorneys can also enjoy generous referral fees and reduce their risk of malpractice."
The thirty-minute presentation is now available as a webinar and addresses four main topics:
Why refer someone to a personal injury attorney?
What kind of case should people refer to a personal injury attorney?
What are the main ethical considerations when referring a case?
When should I refer a case to a personal injury attorney?
Clients typically obtain better results when they work with an attorney who knows the particular nuances of injury law and how to negotiate with the big insurance companies. Insurance companies benefit when a client tries to handle an injury claim alone or with an attorney who is not experienced in navigating the risks and pitfalls of their particular case. Even the most "routine" case might not be as simple as an attorney or client initially believes, so knowing how to investigate a matter becomes critical.
