Law Directories are trying to become the new yellow pages. They charge Virginia lawyers, often huge fees, to place them in their legal directory. The directories then take all of the money and pay to get their sites listed high on Google or other search engines. Once you get to the directory they will connect you with an attorney in your area.
Most directories do not check the credential of the attorney and will give best placement to the one paying the highest fees. If you have significant injuries and lost wages, y ou need to work with a qualified, experienced personal injury attorney, not the one who pays the most to an online directory.
The attorney you are “directed” to may not have any experience handling Virginia automobile injury cases. Some attorneys like to add “personal injury” to the types of cases they handle and then refer the case out for a fee but do not work on the case.
If you decide that you should hire a Virginia injury attorney, you need and deserve one that is experienced. For help in hiring the right Virginia lawyer for your automobile accident or other personal injury case, request a FREE copy of our book “A Crash Course in Virginia Automobile Injury Cases.” The first section of the book discusses “How to Hire a Personal Injury Attorney.”
