In this edition Alabama personal injury attorneys, wrongful death attorneys and accident trial attorney Aaron Gartlan of the Gartlan Injury Law in Dothan will address some key “value add-ons” that a truly top level Alabama personal injury attorneys, wrongful death attorneys and accident trial attorney law firms can bring to your situation and case.

1. Better Chance of Success

A better personal injury attorney, wrongful death attorney and accident trial attorney or lawyer can get you more money and faster results than a merely competent one.

Great personal injury attorneys, wrongful death attorneys and accident trial attorneys have established ways of doing business and relentlessly pursuing success according to tried and tested methods. The best attorneys constantly improve their services, measure their results, get feedback from clients, and strive for never ending improvement. Note, however, that no attorney can guarantee results. There is always an element of chance and uncertainty in any personal injury, wrongful death and accident case – no matter how “open and shut” it appears to you.

2. You Will Feel Better About The Personal Injury, Wrongful Death and Accident Case

Amazingly, better personal injury, wrongful death and accident case results (e.g. bigger verdicts, shorter time to resolve the matter, etc.) don not necessarily translate into higher levels of client satisfaction!

This seems counter intuitive, but the science supports it. According to Daniel Gilbert, a preeminent researcher on happiness, our satisfaction with an outcome hinges on our perceptions and expectations. If your personal injury attorney, wrongful death attorney and accident trial attorney over promises you – if he suggests, for instance, that you will get four hundred thousand dollars ($400,000.00) from your case and only obtains a three hundred thousand dollar ($300,000.00) recovery – you will feel regret over that “loss” of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000.00). On the other hand, if your personal injury attorney, wrongful death attorney and accident trial attorney or lawyer suggests that you might only win two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000.00) and manages to get you three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000.00), you will feel happy because you’ll have won an “extra” one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000).

The simple framing of expectations can enhance your level of satisfaction. Having said that, you don’t want your attorney to downplay your chances just to make you feel more satisfied!
