The Law Office of Brett G. Pearce
Draper Automobile Accidents Lawyer
Overview
A severe accident can be a life changing event. People badly injured in accidents often find their lives turned upside down. The medical bills start piling up. The cell phone sounds off constantly, with calls from various insurance adjusters wanting to have detailed, recorded, probing discussions about very personal aspects of your life. All this while you, weakened and stressed due to your injuries, are not well equipped to look out for your own rights. This is a hard reality...

A severe accident can be a life changing event. People badly injured in accidents often find their lives turned upside down. The medical bills start piling up. The cell phone sounds off constantly, with calls from various insurance adjusters wanting to have detailed, recorded, probing discussions about very personal aspects of your life. All this while you, weakened and stressed due to your injuries, are not well equipped to look out for your own rights. This is a hard reality. When a person carelessly causes an accident resulting in injury to you, the careless person's insurance company immediately impliments a plan designed to drive down the value of your injury claim. The insurance industry's people are attorney trained and attorney advised, from day one. From first hand experience, I know of all this to be true. I spent my first 13 years after law school working as an insurance defense attorney. I have spent the last 19 years representing accident victims.
As an injured accident victim, you simply want to be treated fairly. It is your right to be treated fairly. To achieve this you must promptly hire an attorney with the necessary experience, skills and training. I am the attorney you need.
My firm is, small enough to know you and uniquely experienced to represent you. I am a solo practitioner. Together with my wife, Amber, we handle all that comes along with representing our clients. As our client, you do not get passed from one attorney to the next. At my firm everyone knows your name, everyone knows your claim. My experience as a former insurance defense attorney allows me to anticipate and head off strategies the insurance company will employ. As a result, you are well advised of the progress of claim preparation and your injury claim is presented more persuasively.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
