Lawyers Lie to Clients, Judges, and Juries

It's no secret, lawyers have a bad name. There are lawyers who undoubtedly deserve that bad name. They lie to clients. They lie to Judges. They lie to juries.

You need to know some lawyers are different. There are trial lawyers that win trials because they are honest. They are honest with the Judge. Honest with the jury. And honest with their clients. Honesty is the foundation of client relationships. We have designed this Web site to educate you on the many steps which you should consider if you have a potential claim for personal injuries or death. Our goal is to arm you with the information that you will need in order to keep you from losing your case. Please review our entire site to gain a better understanding of the challenges you will face with your injury or death case.

When you are well within your statute of limitations period, don't do anything until you have read this book: don't call a lawyer for a "free consultation," don't sign any insurance company documents, don't give a recorded statement....Don't do ANYTHING until you have read the controversial book:

Don't Lose Your Case - A Guide to Avoiding the Dumb Mistakes Ordinary People Make That Ruin Their Personal Injury Case

The ground-breaking book, Don't Lose Your Case - A Guide to Avoiding the Dumb Mistakes Ordinary People Make That Ruin Their Personal Injury Case, by Bill Turley, is THE book insurance companies hate and don't want you to read. For the first time, Bill reveals the secrets that will help prevent people from making seemingly innocent case-ending mistakes.

Don't Be "That Guy"

We have seen too many people blow their case by making seemingly innocent mistakes. Insurance companies depend on people making these mistakes. The ramifications are devastating. We have seen it time and again. Folks are scared. They have a spouse, kids, and a mortgage to pay for. Not only can they not return to work - - they are so injured that they can't do any job that they have ever done in their life. They should be scared.

What next? Their only hope is winning a lawsuit against the company that caused their injuries. When it finally sinks in that they have made a mistake that ends their lawsuit, it is gut wrenching. When folks do things that end their case the family recriminations, accusations, blame, and guilt all twist in the wind. It can break families up. It shouldn't be this way. And it doesn't have to be this way. The thing is, you can keep this from happening to you and your family.

Let's get real. With tort reform, and all the other obstacles, injury lawsuits are hard enough to win when you have everything going for you. You will see, lawsuits are not easy. The last thing you want to do is to make a mistake that will seriously hurt your case.

You Are At War With the Insurance Company

Once you are a victim and are seriously injured, the stakes are enormous. You are literally at war with an insurance company. Know this: the insurance company's only goal is to pay you as little money as possible. You can expect telephone calls, letters, e-mails, or all the above. Usually, the insurance adjuster will be nice, polite, and pleasant when they explain the need for your cooperation in order to "process" your claim. You know what? The nicer they are....the more harm they will cause to your case.

Reality check. The adjuster wants your recorded statement in order to get information to deny your claim. The adjuster wants a signed medical authorization to look for information to deny your claim. Now repeat after me:

ANYTHING YOU SAY WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU IN A COURT OF LAW.

We know this from criminal cases. Guess what? It applies doubly in negligence lawsuits. Unlike the police in a criminal case, there is no requirement that the insurance adjuster advise you that you have the right to an attorney! Understand this, if you are seriously injured, the insurance company would just love for you to help them gather information that they are going to use to deny your claim and later, beat you in court. Do yourself a favor, read Don't Lose Your Case - A Guide to Avoiding the Dumb Mistakes Ordinary People Make That Ruin Their Personal Injury Case. Don't fall for the insurance company's tricks and sweet talk.
