Most Personal Injury Accident Attorneys Offer a Free Consultation What is the Difference?
Free Consultation is a standard practice among Accident Attorneys. The difference at Barnes & Cohen experienced, local Jacksonville Florida attorneys Chuck Barnes & Glenn Cohen. Chuck Barnes & Glenn Cohen participate in every Barnes & Cohen case with over 40 years of experience their legal knowledge and experience matters. We often get calls from victims unhappy with the attorney they hired to represent them. The number one reason is lack of experience. Secondly, lack of personal service. Thirdly, the attorney assigned to their case left the firm they hired. Importantly, most of the unhappy victims we hear from hired a Large mega sized Personal Injury Law Firm. Large Personal Injury Law Firms may try to convince you that being large matters. Large mega sized law firms attract many young inexperienced attorneys. We believe the lack of experience, the enormous number of cases on their desk and the lack of personal service often leaves seriously injured victims with significantly less compensation than they deserved because they trusted a large mega law firm with their case.
The insurance company lawyers immediately recognize an inexperienced attorney. Insurance companies will use that inexperience against the injured victim. An inexperienced attorney will not have the negotiation skills and the legal knowledge to evaluate the economic and non-economic needs of a seriously injured victim. Insurance companies know the reputation of Chuck Barnes & Glenn Cohen, Jacksonville Florida experienced trial lawyers.
