Client Testimonials

The Montee Law Firm was a huge help in settling my case. After my accident, I was confused and intimidated by the claims adjusters. I spent months trying to settle on my own and felt increasingly frustrated and anxious. Once I reached out for help, the Montee Law Firm sprang to action and I never had to speak to the adjusters or attempt to negotiate on my own behalf again. The Firm took care of everything, provided a huge relief during a stressful time, and they negotiated a fair settlement on my behalf.

Answers to Common Personal Injury Questions

After a car accident, most people experience some degree of shock. However, there are certain steps that should be taken to help ensure a strong case. If possible, do the following:

  • Call the police
  • Take photos of the accident scene, your car, and your injuries
  • Get insurance information from the other driver
  • See a doctor, even if you believe you injuries are minor

As a general rule, if your injury required medical attention, it is worthwhile to speak to a lawyer. Personal injury law is complex and constantly evolving. An experienced law firm, like the Montee Law Firm, will help you protect your interests and maximize your financial return.

The best way to determine if you have a valid case is to contact the lawyers at the Montee Law Firm. Personal injury claims are often complicated and insurance companies employ an army of adjusters and lawyers to protect their interests from prospective plaintiffs.

Every case is different and may be influenced by factors including the nature and extent of your injuries along with your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Assessing your total losses and damages can be a complicated task. The lawyers at the Montee Law Firm have helped thousands of accident victims and are experts in valuing and pursuing injury claims.

The car you were in should have an insurance policy in force that contains uninsured motorist coverage. Contact us to help you find coverage for your accident.
