If I file a personal injury lawsuit, do I need to go to court?
You may, but the chances are good that you will not. The majority of lawsuits are settled out of court, especially those filed against corporations. Most companies do not want to spend the time or money on a trial, not to mention the risk to their reputation that may result from a public hearing.
A good attorney can help you get the compensation you need, not the small settlement that a defendant is likely to offer. To learn more, contact a Charleston personal injury lawyer by calling the Steinberg Law Firm at 843-720-2800.
