Joel Hamilton sat down with Derek Harper, a Schiller & Hamilton attorney to talk about what happens when you hire a personal injury attorney. They talk about what the client can do to document the accident and their medical journey to help the attorney reach the best settlement possible.  Derek also explains how the timeline of a case should look and what will happen in the first few weeks on the case. Lastly, he goes over what to do when a settlement is made and if not what changes when you move to litigation. If you are still curious about litigation watch the previous episode of the Schiller & Hamilton Podcast with Charlie Corrigan.
