Do I have a case?

In order to determine if you have a case, we must ask the following questions:

LIABILITY – CAC can recover for your injuries, if we can identify a party that is liable or responsible for your injuries. Simply stated, we will fight to recover from the party who is at fault. If your injury is due, in whole or in part, to the conduct or inaction of another person, or business, or from an unsafe product, then the law may provide you a monetary remedy. The amount of that remedy may be determined by agreement (settlement), by an impartial 3rd party (arbitrator or mediator) or by a jury (trial). Even if you were partially at fault, we may still be able to achieve a recovery on your behalf.

DAMAGES – Once CAC has determined that another party is at fault (liability), we must determine what damages you sustained. Damages usually are comprised of one or several of the following: lost wages, medical bills, disability or disfigurement, pain and suffering, property damage. CAC will use its expertise to assess your damages and present those damages to the opposing party or jury in a manner that will maximize your recovery. You have a right to be compensated, and we are here to protect that right.

INSURANCE – Even if another party caused your injury, and you suffered damages as a result, CAC must identify a source from whom to recover. If your injury was caused by a party who did not have any insurance (i.e. automobile, malpractice, business liability), we may have difficulty attaining a monetary award for you, even if we could establish liability and damages. The reality of legal practice is that if there is no insurance and the party that caused your injury does not have assets, the case may be financially prohibitive to pursue for any law firm. CAC will still diligently assess your claim, and will aggressively investigate the existence of assets and insurance.
