The name personal injury is nearly a cliché. An injury to your body is really what personal injury means. It is likely derived from old English common law to injure oneself. In modern times, simply calling it bodily injury would suffice. Personal injury is that classification of tort law specifically dealing with negligence, products liability, and other segments of tort law. It is important to hire a law firm or lawyer that exclusively practices in personal injury. Why? Personal injury is a specialty. Lawyers that practice family law understand the case law, statutes, and issues prevalent in that area of law. Similarly, Personal Attorneys understand the law and issues that are unique to injury law. Anyone who hires a law firm that is not a specialist in injury law is getting a jack-of-all-trades-attorney: someone that may understand basic fundamentals of that practice, but does not solely practice personal injury.

With serious cases involving multiple expert witnesses and litigation strategy, it is extremely important to hire a personal injury law firm that specializes in accident and injury law. Some firms attempt to do criminal law and personal injury or family law and personal injury or other hybrids or combinations of practice. Stick with the firms that specialize. You wouldn’t go to an orthopedic surgeon for your brain tumor would you? No. For the same reasons, you need to choose an attorney carefully.

Experience. Experience is key in hiring a professional. Benson & Bingham are personal injury attorneys that only practice personal injury law and have a combined 18 years of experience in personal injury law. Doctors fresh out of school must do a residency to refine their skills and specialty. Attorneys must learn this on the job. So beware of attorneys fresh out of school—they are lacking experience in injury law and procedural know how. We are a firm that is dedicated to personal injury law and to the victims of these accidents. Injured? Call Benson & Bingham today and schedule a free, no obligation consultation to discuss your case and your rights.

If you are currently with another injury attorney and wish to switch, we will gladly take your case without charging any additional fees. Come talk with us. 

The pride of Benson and Bingham's exclusive practice of personal injury is represented by the selective nature of the cases they choose. Specializing in wrongful death actions, nursing home abuse, medical malpractice and vehicle injury cases, both Mr. Benson and Mr. Bingham have narrowed their focus of injury cases.
