Frequently Asked Questions About Cappuccio & Zaorski, LLC
How is the attorney paid?
At Cappuccio & Zaorski, LLC, our attorneys operate on a contingency fee basis. This means you only pay legal fees if we successfully recover compensation for your case.
How are my medical bills paid?
Our legal team at Cappuccio & Zaorski, LLC works diligently to ensure that our clients are not burdened with overwhelming medical expenses resulting from their injuries.
Who do I file my insurance claim with?
Upon retaining our services, our attorneys will manage all communications with your insurance company. Your primary focus should be on your recovery and well-being.
What do I do after an accident?
Following an accident, prioritize seeking medical attention. If possible, document the scene with photos or videos and gather contact information from witnesses. Refrain from admitting fault or apologizing to other involved parties, as these statements may be used against you in future legal proceedings. If you believe another party may be at fault, consult with an experienced attorney, such as John L. Zaorski, Esq., a certified civil trial attorney specializing in personal injury cases.
How do I know if I have a case?
Determining the viability of your case is best done through a consultation with a qualified attorney. At Cappuccio & Zaorski, LLC, we offer free consultations to evaluate your situation. Generally, a case may exist if someone's negligent actions caused your injuries. However, the application of this principle can be complex, which is why professional legal advice is crucial.
What do I do if an insurance adjuster calls me?
It is advisable to avoid direct communication with insurance adjusters representing other parties involved in the litigation. Despite their seemingly friendly demeanor, their goal is often to elicit statements that could reduce their insured's liability. Direct the adjuster to contact your attorney if you have one, or your own insurance company if you haven't yet retained legal counsel.
What damages are available in a personal injury case?
Personal injury cases typically involve compensatory damages, which are divided into economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages cover tangible costs such as medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage. Non-economic damages address intangible losses like pain and suffering and diminished quality of life. In cases of extreme misconduct, punitive damages may also be awarded. All damages must be reasonably quantifiable to be considered for compensation.
How long will it take to settle my claim?
The duration of a personal injury claim settlement can vary significantly and is often difficult to predict. Factors influencing the timeline include the severity of injuries, the amount of compensation sought, the complexity of the case, and the clarity of liability. Cases involving substantial injuries or significant monetary claims typically take longer to settle. Engaging an attorney may expedite the process by encouraging insurers to present fair offers earlier.
How do I make up for my lost wages until I get my settlement?
For immediate wage loss compensation, you may utilize personal injury protection (PIP) coverage for motor vehicle accidents or explore short-term or long-term disability benefits through your employer. These sources of compensation may require reimbursement upon settlement. Additionally, you may use accrued vacation time, sick leave, or other forms of paid time off provided by your employer.
What if the accident happened on the job?
Work-related accidents typically qualify for workers' compensation benefits, which cover medical expenses and a portion of lost wages. These benefits may also include vocational rehabilitation and lump sum payments for certain injuries. If a third party, other than your employer or coworker, caused the accident, you may have grounds for an additional personal injury claim. At Cappuccio & Zaorski, LLC, we handle both workers' compensation and personal injury aspects of your case to maximize your potential compensation.
