There are a lot of truck accident lawyers in Iowa, and choosing a lawyer to represent you after a truck wreck can be challenging. Below are some things to consider before you hire a truck accident injury attorney.
Experience Matters
Anyone who is admitted to the bar in Iowa can represent you in a truck accident case, but not every Iowa lawyer should represent you after a truck accident injury. The lawyer who drafted your will or set up your business may have done a great job for you in the past, but that lawyer may not have experience negotiating with insurance companies, collecting evidence, or valuing personal injury claims.
Hupy and Abraham has been providing injured Midwesterners with legal representation for more than 50 years. Our attorneys have more than 200 years of combined legal experience, and we use the knowledge we’ve gained from that experience for the benefit of all of our clients. Together, we have represented more than 70,000 clients and secured more than $1 billion for them.
Our attorneys have been recognized with more than 250 awards and honors. We are voted best and rated best, year after year. Some of the awards and honors received by our individual attorneys include:
- A Martindale Hubbell rating of AV Preeminent for our legal ability and ethical standards
- Membership in the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum and the Million Dollar Advocates Forum
- Being recognized as Super Lawyers
- Being named as Top 100 Trial Lawyers by the American Trial Lawyers Association
Perhaps our highest honor, however, is the extraordinary feedback we receive from our clients. Our client testimonials explain how our firm works, our commitment to our clients, and the difference we’ve made in the lives of our personal injury clients.
Personality and Philosophy Matter Too
Experience is critical, but it is not the only thing that you should consider when hiring an Iowa truck accident lawyer. You are hiring someone to do a very important job for you, and you should also consider how you get along with the attorney and the attorney’s philosophy for representing a truck accident client.
Hupy and Abraham truck accident lawyers care about every client we represent. We provide tough, compassionate, and aggressive compensation to help our clients make fair financial recoveries for the injuries they suffered due to someone else’s negligence.
We provide personal attention and the best possible representation from the time you come in for an initial consultation until your case’s conclusion.
Insurance companies that do business in Iowa know that Hupy and Abraham truck accident lawyers mean business. Often, this makes them more willing to settle with us than to risk going to trial. However, if they are unwilling to make a fair settlement, then we are more than willing to go to court to get you the fair financial recovery that you deserve.
How to Interview a Truck Accident Lawyer
You can learn a lot about our truck accident law firm by browsing our website. However, before you decide whom to hire, we strongly encourage you to schedule a free, no-obligation consultation with us. We are happy to meet with you in any of our Iowa offices, Cedar Rapids, Des Moines, or Davenport, or at your home or hospital room.
During our meeting, we will ask you about the truck crash that left you injured and about your specific injuries. Additionally, we want you to learn everything that you need to know about us. Some of the questions that you might want to consider include:
- How will we communicate while my case is pending?
- How will you keep me updated about the status of my case?
- What role will I play in the case? What’s expected of me?
- Have you handled a case like mine before?
- Do you have the necessary resources to prepare my case?
- How will you be paid?
Of course, we also invite you to ask all of your own questions. We want you to be comfortable and confident when you hire Hupy and Abraham to represent you, and we want to work with you to get you the compensation that you deserve after a truck accident injury.
