Hiring a personal injury lawyer can feel overwhelming, especially after a serious accident. In this video, attorneys Brent Stewart and Elizabeth VonCannon of Stewart Law Offices walk through the steps to hiring an injury attorney, what to bring to your first meeting, and how prior health issues and fault affect a claim.
Brent explains his traditional, face-to-face approach, while Elizabeth shares how many clients now prefer phone consultations and electronic paperwork for convenience. Whether in person or online, Stewart Law Offices ensures that the intake process fits your needs.
What to bring: Medical bills, accident reports, and any records related to your injuries. Even if you’re unsure whether a document matters, bring it — your attorney can decide what’s relevant. Stewart Law Offices will also obtain your medical records once you sign a release.
Prior health issues: Don’t assume past conditions disqualify you. If an accident worsens or aggravates an old injury, it may still form the basis of a claim. Attorneys often work with doctors to show how a new accident has impacted existing medical issues.
Fault matters: In South Carolina, partial fault reduces damages proportionally. In North Carolina, even 1% fault can bar recovery entirely. Bringing an accident report early helps your attorney evaluate how fault may affect your case.
At Stewart Law Offices, the goal is to protect your rights, simplify the process, and give you confidence from the first call to resolution.
