A common misconception about car accidents is that in order to recover for your damages you actually have to go to Court and sue.  However, this is usually not the case if you hire an attorney with experience.  You are always better off with an experienced personal injury attorney, one who knows the various insurance adjusters and has worked in the past with their lawyers, 99% of the time a settlement can be worked out without going into Court.  An experienced attorney will guide you step by step through the process to maximize your award.  If you have been injured in an auto accident, please feel free to contact Attorney Mark O. Grater in Groton, Ct. at 860-449-8059 or e-mail him at mgraterlaw@sbcglobal.net to set up a free consultation.  There is no fee unless there is a settlement.
