How to choose a personal injury lawyer

  1. Check the lawyer’s status and any public discipline in the state bar or law society directory.
  2. Ask how many personal injury law matters the lawyer handles each year, and who at the firm will do the work.
  3. Get the fee arrangement in writing: hourly, flat or contingency, and which costs are charged on top.
  4. Ask how and how often the firm will update you, and how fast it answers calls and emails.
  5. Read recent reviews for how the firm communicated and billed, not only for outcomes.
  6. Ask who pays case costs (medical reports, filing fees, records) if there is no recovery, and whether costs come out before or after the lawyer’s percentage.
  7. Meet more than one firm; many offer a short first consultation, sometimes free.

Questions to ask a personal injury lawyer

  • How would you approach a matter like mine, and what are the realistic options?
  • How do you charge, and what will the total likely cost?
  • Who will be my main contact, and how quickly do you reply?
  • Will you or another lawyer handle my case day to day?
  • How many cases like mine have you taken to trial?
  • Is there any conflict of interest that would stop you representing me?

Terms explained

Contingency fee
A fee that is a share of the money recovered, paid only if there is a recovery. Common in injury cases; not allowed for criminal defense or for securing a divorce.

Flat fee
One set price for a defined piece of work, such as a will or an uncontested matter.

A lawyer’s status as active and eligible to practise with a state bar or law society.
Law society
The body that licenses and disciplines lawyers in a Canadian province or territory.
Board certification

Conflict check
The search a firm runs before taking a matter to make sure it does not represent someone on the other side.

Is there a deadline to bring an injury claim?

Yes. Every state sets a filing deadline (a statute of limitations) and some are as short as one year; claims against a government body can have even shorter notice periods. Ask a lawyer about the deadline for your claim early. This is general information, not legal advice.

How is this list of personal injury lawyers in Lee's Summit, MO ranked?

By LFR Score only, from public data on reviews, practice focus, office location and hours. Firms labelled “Attorney advertising” paid for that placement; payment never changes a rank, and a rank is not an endorsement.

No, but the lawyer must be licensed in your state (or, for federal matters such as immigration, in some state). A local office makes meetings and court appearances easier, so proximity is one of our factors.
