Warrenton Personal Injury Lawyer Can Help You File On-Time 

The timeframe to file a personal injury claim depends on the type. However, you can usually expect this to be two years from the date of the incident/injury. The best way to learn what the current laws are concerning the statute of limitations is to consult with a Warrenton personal injury lawyer. These laws sometimes change and may depend on the specifics surrounding your case. 

One of the problems with trying to negotiate a settlement in a personal injury claim is that it can drag out for a long time. If you wait too long, then you run the risk of being unable to file a lawsuit. 

Although two years might sound like a lot of time, the process can be very complicated and cause things to be delayed. This is why your first step should be to immediately seek legal counsel. Once you hit the deadline to file a claim, there is nothing you can do. You will then have no right to sue the party that is liable for your injuries.

Working with Andrew and his team has been--without exception--one of the most pleasant, productive, and professional experiences of my adult life. I was seriously injured in an accident in July, 2018, in Virginia. I was driving a company vehicle that was registered in Maryland, for a company that was based in Wisconsin. And I live in New Jersey, where my personal vehicles are insured. The several jurisdictions involved presented a very unique case that demanded an experienced and nuanced strategy. I found Andrew Thomas (of Dulaney, Lauer, & Thomas) through some online research. And it is noteworthy that Andrew has worked the other side of the aisle--he used to work with insurance companies. Andrew took on my case with the assurance that he would work it with no less energy than he does each of his cases. At each turn, and with each question I had, Andrew and Paralegal Misty kept me informed, returned my calls, provided detailed explanations, and kept me feeling like I was in the loop and there was an eventual end to our journey. Nearly five years after the accident, we settled out of court for a significant sum in recognition of my personal injuries. The settlement was much more than I had expected. And without Andrew & Misty, I am sure the award would have been much less. If you are looking for professionalism, knowledge, dedication, answerability, responsiveness, integrity, and human-level communication from a personal injury attorney--look no further. You have found him. Thank you, Andrew and Misty. Gary Daley
