Answer: The main thing to look for when selecting a personal injury lawyer is to evaluate the lawyer’s track record in other similar cases. Joe Gregorio is rated by Martindale Hubble, a National Lawyer Rating Service for his outstanding legal ability.

Question: Should I sue?

Answer: Whether or not you should sue is a personal decision that is entirely up to you. It is important to understand that the greater your injury is, the more reason the defense has to fight your claim. Even if you think you are partially at fault for the accident, you should consider contacting an attorney because recovery is still possible.

Question: How can you prove negligence?

Answer: The ability to prove negligence requires skill and experience. Juries are often skeptical, and careful work is required to make a convincing case.

Personal injury accidents are usually caused by someone's carelessness, failure to act, or outright negligence. Often times it is a combination of negligent acts or a failure to act by one or more persons or entities that cause an accident to occur.

The law requires that each person owes every other person a duty to act as a reasonably prudent person would act under the same or similar circumstances. When a person does not act reasonably, then they have violated that duty and will be held responsible for any injury or damage that results.

Question: What compensation am I entitled to?

Answer: Damages can include payment of your medical bills (including past, present and future), compensation for loss of income and the ability to earn an income in the future, vocational rehabilitation, and compensation for pain and suffering. In addition, the spouse of a survivor may be entitled to compensation when an injury is so serious that it interferes with the spouse’s relations.

Question: What are compensatory damages?

Answer: “Compensatory damages” is the term that describes the amounts recovered to compensate you for your actual losses and / or damages in a personal injury accident case. According to the courts, compensatory damages must be “reasonable.”

Question: What are punitive damages?

Answer: Punitive damages are meant to punish the wrongdoer and make an example of the defendant. Punitive damages are not always paid and appellate courts often cut the amount of punitive damages down or even throw them out. The risk of punitive damages could be incentive for the defense to agree upon a higher settlement amount. The reason that punitive damage awards are frequently reported in the press is that such awards are unusual.

Question: What will happen if I choose the wrong personal injury lawyer?

Answer: The consequences of choosing an inexperienced or unqualified personal injury lawyer can be dire. You only have one case and one chance to have it handled properly. You need an experienced and responsive personal injury attorney who returns phone calls and doesn’t allow your case to sit for years.

Question: What if I can’t afford legal assistance?

Answer: Personal injury attorneys usually work on a contingency basis. This means that the attorney will not charge you an up front fee, but will charge you a percentage of the amount you recover when you get a settlement or verdict. Joseph A. Gregorio works on a contingency basis so there’s no risk to you when using his personal injury attorney services.

Question: What happens if I don’t have enough medical coverage?

Answer: Joseph A. Gregorio will work to maximize your medical coverage. Most people don’t realize that even if you have medical coverage, many companies (ambulance company, hospitals, doctors) are entitled to be reimbursed from your settlement. They’ll work with your insurance company and are often able to reduce the amount of the repayment. Joseph A. Gregorio will work to maximize your settlement.
