If you've been injured in an accident in Concord or Manchester, Henniker and Portsmouth, you may be entitled to significant compensation — but only if you have the right legal representation. Here are the five most important questions to ask before hiring a personal injury attorney in NH.
**1. Have you handled cases like mine in NH?** NH personal injury law has specific statutes of limitations, comparative fault rules, and procedural requirements. You want an attorney with direct local experience, not someone learning on the job.
**2. Who will actually work on my case?** At some firms, a senior attorney meets with you and a paralegal handles everything else. Clarify who your primary contact will be and how accessible they are.
**3. What is your fee structure?** Most personal injury attorneys in Concord work on a contingency basis — you pay nothing unless you win. Confirm this upfront and understand what percentage the firm takes and what costs you might still owe.
**4. What is my case realistically worth?** A reputable attorney will give you an honest range, not an inflated number to win your business. Be wary of anyone who promises a specific outcome.
**5. Have you taken cases to trial?** Insurance companies know which attorneys litigate and which always settle. If your attorney has a strong trial record, insurers settle for more.
At Concord Law Group, we answer all of these questions plainly in our initial consultation — and we never charge for that first conversation.
