What Happens During a Free Consultation with a Lawyer?
A free consultation is a no-obligation conversation where a personal injury attorney listens to your situation, evaluates your claim, and explains your legal options. There's no cost, no commitment, and no risk to you. It's your opportunity to get honest legal guidance before making any decisions.
What to Expect
When you sit down — in person or by phone — the attorney will ask you to walk through what happened. They'll want to know how the accident occurred, what injuries you sustained, whether you've received medical treatment, and whether another party's negligence was involved. Be as detailed as possible; every fact helps the attorney assess the strength of your case.
Questions the Attorney Will Ask
- When and where did the incident happen?
- What injuries did you suffer, and have you seen a doctor?
- Have you spoken with insurance companies yet?
- Do you have photos, police reports, or witness information?
Questions You Should Ask
The consultation works both ways. Ask about the attorney's experience with cases like yours, how long the process typically takes, and what your case might realistically be worth. Most importantly, ask about fees — a contingency-fee attorney, like the Law Office of Bobby Udall, charges nothing unless you win, so there's truly no financial risk in getting started.
What Happens Next
If the attorney believes you have a viable claim, they'll explain the next steps — typically gathering evidence, filing insurance claims, and beginning negotiations. If your case needs to go further, litigation, mediation, or arbitration may follow. You leave the consultation with clarity, not a bill.
