What Burrow & Associates Can Do For You

Our experienced team of personal injury attorneys will assess your situation to determine if you are entitled to monetary compensation due to someone else’s mistake or negligence. Your assigned lawyer will work diligently to research and identify the responsible entities to pursue your personal injury claim. We always do our due diligence in handling our clients’ cases. Here are some commons steps we may take in handling your case:

Collect Evidence We will gather proof that the responsible entity was negligent, caused, or contributed to your injuries. In order to collect evidence, we may

Go to the scene of the accident
Take pictures of the conditions leading to your or your loved one’s injury
Speak to witnesses
Obtain copies of accident or police reports

Survey Injuries Your lawyer will assess your injuries by reviewing your medical records to determine the severity of your injuries. Your attorney may also work with a medical expert who may be able to testify with regards to the medical treatments needed for you to recover. Working closely with medical experts can help ensure full compensation for your suffered damages.

Negotiate a Settlement In some cases, our personal injury lawyers may be able to negotiate a settlement with the responsible business or entity. Cases often result in settlement when a business or property owner wants to avoid the costs and negative publicity associated with a jury trial. If the settlement negotiations do not result in an offer in your best interest, your attorney will prepare the case for trial.

What Should I do After An Accident?

First and foremost, you should call the police following an accident to file a police report so that you can have an official record of the incident. Make sure to report your injuries while on the scene of the accident. If possible take pictures of the scene of the incident so that we can use it as evidence. Your next step before contacting your insurance agent is to get in touch with an attorney as soon as possible.

Many people are hesitant to reach out to a personal injury attorney, because they believe that legal assistance is not affordable or worth the process. This notion is absolutely untrue. Burrow & Associates works on a contingency agreement. There are no surprise fees whatsoever.

A Warning Against Big Firms

Personal injury attorneys LOVE to put the big verdicts they get on billboards and television ads. The bigger the better! People think if a lawyer got millions of dollars for one client then he can do it for them too. But there is a secret that few people know about: The truth is that the people who hired the attorney on the billboard likely only received a tiny fraction of that verdict, if anything.

How can that be? If the jury awards millions of dollars, the defendant has to pay it, right? Wrong.

Judgments against individuals and small companies can be wiped out through the bankruptcy process. As such, people with no assets frequently do not even put up a fight in litigation. So, the attorney goes to Court and gets a huge judgment against someone who does not challenge the lawsuit (he/she just has something nice to put on a billboard now). The defendant heads to bankruptcy court, so he could care less. What little may be actually paid all goes to the lawyer and the doctors and, the client, whose life has been turned upside down due to another person’s negligence, is left with nothing. At Burrow & Associates, we think that’s wrong.

Personal Injury at Burrow & Associates: The Difference

Our firm specializes in locating sources of insurance and other assets that can be used to actually pay big verdicts and settlements. Sadly, many injured people walk away with nothing, simply because they hired a lawyer who lacked the knowledge or will to find those sources. As an example, our firm recently represented a client who was seriously injured as a result of the negligence of a business owner. While our client was shopping at the defendant’s store, a poorly maintained walkway collapsed. Although the store was clearly at fault and the client was injured, several other law firms passed on taking the case (apparently, her damages were not high enough to be billboard-worthy). The other attorneys passed on the case, because the store records indicated that it was owned by one individual who already had numerous unpaid judgments against him. Because the other lawyers presumed there was no money to pay a judgment, they were unwilling to take it on.

What Our Team Discovered

Our firm dug deeper. Through our investigation, we discovered a complicated scam perpetrated by the owner of the store to hide his assets. Instead of being asset-less, we learned that the owner of the business had effectuated a complicated scheme to transfer the assets of the company into a shell corporation and then funneled it through a trust to a family member. This discovery led us to find corporate assets and a large insurance policy that could be used to actually compensate our client. By focusing on our clients’ needs, rather than just making ourselves look good, our firm is able to get results that other firms cannot.
