The Science of Winning Personal Injury Cases

Hiring the right experts, at the right time, can make the difference between receiving nothing for your personal injury claim or getting justice. For example, let's take another look at our client, Susie, and her terrible auto accident, when she collided with an abandoned vehicle on the highway.Susie was traveling at the speed limit, during morning rush hour, when the car in front of her swerved to the side, revealing another car stopped in the middle of the freeway. Susie tried to change lanes, but was hemmed in by traffic on both sides. There was no way out and Susie slammed on her brakes and hoped for the best.
The collision fractured her right shoulder and damaged her own vehicle. The following hours were a blur and ended with her in the hospital.
“At least I’m covered through my own insurance,” she thought.
The bad news continued when her insurance company denied her claim. They said she was at fault. After all those years of paying premiums, they weren’t only going to over her PIP coverage.
Astonished, Susie called GetMeJustice and met with an attorney.
“We can help,” he said after reviewing her case.
One of the problems that Susie had was that she did not know how to access the proof she had to show that the accident was not her fault. She hadn't talked to any witnesses, and she didn't know that the police report and their photographs contained the physical evidence that showed she was not at fault.
Without the help of a lawyer, it would have ended there, with a serious injury, a totaled car, and limited help from her insurance company. Fortunately for Susie, GetMeJustice hired an Accident Reconstruction Expert who proved that there was no way Susie could have avoided the abandoned vehicle. Susie's insurance company ended up paying Susie her Uninsured Motorist policy limits.
So how can GetMeJustice help you like they helped Susie? By consulting with their network of experts:
1. Accident Reconstruction Experts reconstruct accidents to show who caused the accident.
Accident Reconstructionists are highly skilled experts with CSI-like training. They gather data about steering angles, braking, turn signals, speed, engine indicators, tire marks, and other information and use it to simulate the crash. They can show who caused the car crash and the speed of the vehicles.
2. Advanced Medical Tests and Tools such as SPEC Scans and 3D Animation.
New technology can show proof of serious injuries that older methods couldn’t see.
For example, a Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPEC) Scans is a highly sophisticated test can show brain injuries not seen in a CT Scan.
Additionally, 3D Animation can show the mechanism of injury, such as blunt force trauma.
These advanced Medical Tests and Tools can show how the injury occurred and document the severity of an injury, all of which lead to increased compensation for injured victims.

3. Vocational Rehabilitation Experts document permanent injuries and work limitations.
Vocational Rehabilitationists test injured victims and give the insurance companies proof of their current states and the true impact their injuries have on their work.
Vocational Rehabilitations test learning capacity, assess the transferability of skills, assess the success of rehabilitation, give career counseling advice, and assess the labor market.
If the accident caused a permanent injury or disability, then a Vocational Rehabilitationist can assess those impacts on a victim's ability to work now and in the future. Documenting these losses help injured victims receive more compensation from the insurance companies.
