When it comes to personal injury cases, misconceptions abound. At the Law Office of Kris Mukherji, we believe in educating our clients so they can make informed decisions about their cases. Let’s address some of the most common myths:
Myth 1: Hiring a Personal Injury Attorney Is Too Expensive
The truth is, most personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront, and your attorney is only paid if you receive compensation. At the Law Office of Kris Mukherji, we take on the financial risk so you can focus on your recovery.
Myth 2: Minor Injuries Don’t Warrant a Claim
Even seemingly minor injuries can have long-term effects. Whiplash, for instance, might not seem serious initially but can lead to chronic pain. Filing a claim ensures you’re compensated for both immediate and future expenses.
Myth 3: You Can File a Claim Anytime
Every state has a statute of limitations for personal injury cases. In California, you typically have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. Missing this deadline could mean losing your right to compensation.
