Is there a reason to contact an attorney immediately?

If you have been injured by the negligence of another person or while at work, you should not delay in contacting an attorney. By waiting too long, you may lose your legal rights, as all cases involve sensitive and serious legal deadlines, known as the Statute of Limitations. In addition, it is important to allow your attorney the opportunity to gather critical evidence that may disappear as time goes by. An insurance company will have its employees investigating the case immediately — you should as well.
