Winning Personal Injury Cases: A Practical Guide for Lawyers, by Evan Aidman, Esq.

Whether you are a young lawyer new to personal injury work, an unrepresented plaintiff, or you just want to be better able to monitor your attorney’s work, my new book, Winning Personal Injury Cases, is for you. I show you how to level the playing field when facing experienced defense counsel. I show you how to draft effective demand letters and settlement proposals, and much, much more.

​

Winning Personal Injury Cases walks you through an injury lawsuit, all the way from investigating the accident to closing argument in front of the jury, and everything in between. If you are involved in personal injury litigation, you are battling an insurance company. My book guides you through the process and lays bare the hidden traps.

​

Personal injury cases can be handled — or they can be won!  BE A WINNER!!

Overview

  • What evidence do you need to gather quickly, and where can you find it?

  • First contact with the insurance company –what do you need to know?

  • How can you craft your discovery to get the best responses from the other side?

  • Why are kids “different” in personal injury litigation?

  • You may be able to prove an injury — but can you maximize damages?

  • What negotiating tactics should you adopt? Which can you expect to confront?

  • What are your best objections at trial, and when should you make them? (Hint: not every objection that can be made should be made!)

  • How do you determine if a judgment is collectible?
