When It Feels Overwhelming, Start with the Right Help
Getting hurt in an accident—whether it’s a car crash in Allentown, a slip on icy steps in Bethlehem, or a dog bite in Freemansburg—is stressful enough. But once the dust settles, the real headaches begin: doctor visits, insurance forms, missed work, mounting bills, and a thousand questions. One of the most important decisions you’ll make during this time is choosing the right personal injury attorney to guide you through it. And let me tell you, not all attorneys are created equal.
Local Knowledge Makes a Big Difference
The Lehigh Valley isn’t Philly or Pittsburgh—it has its own pace, its own courts, and its own way of doing things. That’s why working with someone local matters. At Michael A. Snover ESQ Attorney at Law, we’ve handled personal injury cases across Bethlehem, Allentown, Fountain Hill, Freemansburg, Rittersville, and surrounding areas. We know the roads where crashes are most common. We know the local adjusters, judges, and how the system works here. That kind of inside knowledge can make all the difference in building a strong case and getting a fair result.
Look for Real Experience—Not Just Big Promises
You’ve probably seen those flashy TV ads or billboards along Route 22 promising huge payouts. But when it comes down to it, you want someone who actually takes the time to understand your situation—not just someone looking to settle your case as quickly as possible. Ask potential attorneys about the types of personal injury cases they’ve handled. Have they dealt with serious injuries like yours? Do they go to trial when needed, or do they push every client into a fast settlement? Real results come from real preparation and a willingness to fight if that’s what it takes.
Communication Is Key
A great attorney won’t just talk at you—they’ll talk with you. They’ll answer your questions, explain the legal process in plain English, and keep you in the loop as your case progresses. At our office, we believe that staying available and responsive is just as important as filing paperwork or showing up in court. If you can’t get your attorney on the phone or they’re constantly passing you off to assistants, that’s a red flag. You deserve to feel heard and supported, especially when you’re dealing with pain and uncertainty.
Pay Attention to How You’re Treated
Your case isn’t just a file—it’s your life, your recovery, and your future. The right attorney understands that. When you meet with someone, notice how they treat you. Do they rush you out the door? Or do they take the time to learn about how the injury is affecting your day-to-day life—your family, your work, your peace of mind? At Michael A. Snover ESQ Attorney at Law, we pride ourselves on treating every client like an individual, not a number. We know that a successful case isn’t just about the money—it’s about helping you move forward.
Ask the Right Questions
Before hiring an attorney, don’t be afraid to ask direct questions: How many personal injury cases have you handled? What’s your strategy for my type of case? How will I be updated about progress? Who will actually be working on my case day to day? Transparency matters. A good attorney won’t dodge these questions—they’ll appreciate that you’re doing your homework.
Make Sure They’re Willing to Fight
Not every personal injury case goes to trial, but the threat of trial is often what pushes insurance companies to offer a fair settlement. You want an attorney who isn’t afraid to go to court if it comes to that. At our firm, we prepare every case as if it might be presented to a judge or jury. That preparation not only builds stronger cases—it builds confidence for our clients.
