Ask Perkins:

  •   I am injured but I do not have any money or any insurance. What can I do?

    First, it is extremely important for you to go to a doctor, both for your health and to substantiate your case. Next, come to us. We work on a contingency fee basis and will not charge you any fees for our services unless we win your case. We will help you recover money to pay for your medical expenses.

    With Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers, clients never have to worry about legal fees while they are struggling to pay medical bills. We take care of you.

  •   How can you help me?

    Perkins can help you in a number of ways. We evaluate your case, determine if you are eligible for compensation, and develop a plan to gain you compensation. A case management team is assigned to your case. This team tracks all your paperwork and appointments and helps you document your medical records. We make sure you seek treatment for any new injuries. We will even drive you to the doctor’s office if you have no transportation.

  •   How do I know if I have a claim?

    The best, quickest way to find out if you have an injury case in Connecticut is to speak to a qualified legal professional. When you call Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers, you speak to Dawn Soffer, our call intake manager. She writes a detailed report of your accident. Your case is then reviewed by an experienced staff member and a personal injury attorney.

    We are honest and open. If we do not believe you have a valid injury case, we will let you know immediately.

  •   Should I speak to another attorney about my case?

    Some people are reassured by a second opinion. Many of our own clients come to us frustrated with the care—or lack of care—from their former lawyers. At Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers, we want you to feel confident and secure in your attorney selection. Our team works hard to ensure your experience with us is a good one.

  •   An insurance company offered me a settlement shortly after I was injured. Should I take it?

    Though the offer may be tempting, you should never take a settlement without consulting an attorney. Our Connecticut personal injury lawyers have extensive experience negotiating settlements. We know when an offer is fair compensation and when you are being low-balled. We do not let clients walk away with less than they deserve.
