How to Choose the Right Personal Injury Lawyer

Experience. Compassion. Results.

After a serious accident, choosing the right personal injury lawyer can change the course of your recovery—financially, emotionally, and physically. At Presley & Presley, our team has spent decades representing individuals and families devastated by catastrophic injuries and wrongful death. We know how overwhelming it can feel to decide who to trust with your future.

Here are five things every injured victim and their family should know before hiring a lawyer.

1. Look for Proven Results

A history of significant verdicts and settlements speaks volumes. Results show that a firm not only understands the law—but knows how to win against powerful defendants and insurers.

Visit our [Case Results] page to see how Presley & Presley has secured justice for people seriously injured in car crashes, commercial trucking crashes, aviation accidents, defective product cases, and workplace disasters across Missouri and beyond.

2. Choose a Lawyer Who Focuses on Serious Injury Cases

Not all personal injury lawyers handle catastrophic claims. Cases involving traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burns, or wrongful death require deep medical knowledge, expert networks, and financial resources to see them through.

Our [Catastrophic Injury Practice] is built for these complex cases. We combine compassionate client care with a relentless pursuit of maximum recovery.

3. Read Reviews and Testimonials

Client experiences reveal more than any advertisement can. Reviews offer insight into communication, compassion, and commitment.

Read what past clients say about working with Presley & Presley on our [Testimonials] page—and see why so many families trust us after life-changing injuries.

4. Make Sure the Firm Has Real Trial Experience

Insurance companies know which firms actually go to trial. Lawyers who settle quickly often leave significant value on the table.

At Presley & Presley, our attorneys are seasoned trial lawyers with a national reputation for taking on complex, high-stakes cases—and winning. We’ve gone toe-to-toe with corporate defendants and insurance giants in courtrooms across the country.

5. Schedule a Free Consultation

The best way to know if a firm is right for you is to talk to them. We offer free, no-obligation consultations where you can ask questions, understand your options, and get honest answers about your case.

Whether you’ve been injured in a car accident, semi truck accident, or by a dangerous product, you deserve experienced, compassionate legal representation.

When your life has been upended by a serious injury or your family has lost a loved one due to wrongful death, the lawyer you choose matters more than ever.
