Is it necessary to have a lawyer when sued for injuries incurred in an accident?
If you are sued for injuries you caused in a car accident, you are not required to have an attorney represent you; you can be a fool and represent yourself and take the chance on losing everything you own if you lose the case. But, if you have car insurance, the insurance company will provide a lawyer for you. They are required to do that under the policy. Plus, the company is not going to trust you or a lawyer of your choosing to defend your case if the insurance company has to pay for the damages.

What to do if you get hurt and want to sue?
Go to a personal injury lawyer or law firm to discuss whether or not you have grounds to sue and what potential recovery you might get if the case either goes to trial or settles. This last issue is very important as an experienced lawyer will be able to give some estimation of what to expect depending on the injuries involved, expenses incurred and those still to be incurred. Insurance companies tend to give particular injuries a dollar value based upon their research and statistics and an experienced personal injury lawyer will be somewhat familiar with them. You won't find anything like a published list of amounts. The companies keep that information secret. But a lawyer who has been involved in many PI cases will have gotten to see patterns and be able to give you at least a general idea. Discuss the fee up front before you retain any lawyer, bur retain one. People should never represent themselves in PI actions. The potential to get far less than what is deserved is too great.
