How Much Will I Have to Pay for a Cheyenne Advocate? 

Some accident victims choose to file their injury claims on their own, fearing steep attorney fees. With an Advocate, however, you don’t need to worry—there are zero upfront costs to hire our experienced accident lawyers. 

 In fact, you will pay nothing out-of-pocket. We work on a contingency basis, meaning we don’t get paid until we win your case and you receive a settlement. Once that happens, our fees are calculated as a percentage of your settlement amount. 

 This fee structure works to your advantage in several ways. First, it means that finances are not a barrier to obtaining excellent legal representation. Second, it guarantees that our goal is always the same as yours: to get you maximum compensation for your damages.

How Do I Know if I Have a Personal Injury Case in Cheyenne? 

Wyoming follows a modified comparative fault system when determining negligence in an accident case. This means that more than one party can share responsibility for an accident. Fault is assigned as a percentage—for example, you may be assigned 25% of the fault, while the other party is found to be 75% responsible. 

 As long as you are not more than 50% at fault for your accident, you may seek compensation for your damages. Your settlement amount will be reduced according to the amount of fault assigned to you. 

 Of course, the best way to know if you have a valid personal injury case is to speak with a personal injury attorney. They will be able to help you gather evidence and prove the other party’s negligence.

Do All Cases Go to Trial? 

The short answer here is no. In fact, many cases are settled in negotiations, meaning that many injury victims are able to get compensation without ever entering a courtroom. 

 Your Advocate will negotiate with the at-fault party’s insurance company to get you fair compensation for your damages. This can take months or even years, depending on the severity of your injuries and the other party’s willingness to settle. 

 If it becomes apparent that a fair settlement will not be reached in negotiations, then your Advocate may advise that you take your case to court. If you choose to go to litigation, our experienced trial lawyers will represent you in front of a judge and/or jury. We will do everything we can to get you a favorable verdict. 

 Litigation can extend the life of your case, but it is sometimes the best way to get the compensation you deserve. Your attorney will offer legal advice based on their years of experience, but the decision to go to court will always be up to you.

What Types of Damages Can I Sue for in a Wyoming Claim? 

Every personal injury case is different. Because no two accidents are exactly alike, every case will involve different types of damages and different settlement amounts. 

 Some common damages sought in personal injury claims include: 

  • Medical expenses 
  • Lost wages 
  • Property damage 
  • Non-economic damages, like pain and suffering 
  • Funeral and burial expenses 

 The best way to know the value of your case is to speak with a personal injury attorney. They will examine the details of your accident and determine what damages you may seek in your claim.

How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit? 

Every personal injury case is subject to a time limit known as the statute of limitations. Once the statute of limitations has expired, you lose your right to file a lawsuit to enforce your rights. 

 The exact amount of time you have depends on the state where your accident occurred, the type of accident, and several other factors. In general, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases in Wyoming is four years, but it’s important to consult with an attorney to know exactly how long you have to file as certain types of claims have a shorter statute of limitations.
