The Sandler Solution

I often talk with people who have been in a crash and who have been hurt, through someone else’s fault, and they ask, “Do I really need a lawyer?  Can’t I just handle this myself?  Wouldn’t it just be cheaper for me to do it?  While I understand why they ask these questions, my answer is always a resounding “NO WAY”.  It’s simple to say, “Well if you are not a car mechanic, would you try to fix your car?” or “If you’re not an electrician, would you try to rewire your house?”.  But the truth is simple - There is specialized knowledge required to know the rules, to know your rights and your obligations, to know the problem and to find the solution.
