What kind of ongoing communications policy should be expected between a lawyer and a client?
Summary
At Preszler Injury Lawyers, we prioritize effective communication between clients and their legal team. Our approach ensures that clients have regular contact with their lawyers, allowing for timely updates on any medical changes that may impact their case. Each client is assigned two lawyers, increasing the likelihood of direct communication and support throughout the recovery process. We strive to respond to messages within 24 hours and, when that isn't feasible, we arrange specific times for clients to speak with their lawyers. This commitment helps alleviate the burden on clients during challenging times. For assistance, contact us at 1-800-JUSTICE.

Insurers often take the position that if people recover and are able to get back to work, they will push for a graduated return to work or a work hardening plan to try to get you off their books. Their idea is that they can prove you are able to ease back into things after the two-year mark. They take the position that there is a job out there for everyone and that it is simply a matter of retraining.
The challenge for people is to prove how their disability prevents them from working day after day, week after week, and month after month. Many people may be able to get through a day, but they struggle when having to juggle the totality of the demands of the job.
