Let me paint you a picture. It is a bitterly cold February morning, and you are out for your morning jog. It had rained the night before, and now the early morning temperature drop is causing a hard freeze. For your safety, you are running on the sidewalk, crossing neighbor's driveways as you must. Most of your neighbors have already shoveled and salted their driveways, providing you with a solid, safe surface to run on. One neighbor, however, did neither, and as you cross the bottom of their driveway, your foot lands on a patch of ice hidden by the snow, which sends you flying. The resultant injuries are a pulled hamstring, a sprained ankle, and a torn ACL.
This is where your Alaska personal injury attorney comes to play. He or she will present your case to a court, expressing that it was not your responsibility to shovel or salt your neighbor's driveway; and that it is a well known fact within the neighborhood that you jog every day at that hour. Your attorney will point out that it is through this neighbor's negligence that you now have to undergo surgery to repair the torn ligament, and will be kept from both work and play for several months because they couldn't be bothered to throw a little salt down at the end of their driveway.
It is also the duty of your personal injury lawyer to battle with the insurance companies to ensure that you are receiving your due from them, as well as the neighbor. This one individual is more akin to a lifeline or a superhero than most would think. Without them, you could end up bogged down in legal paperwork and red tape for months, putting more stress on your mind and body than is wise, which in turn causes your injuries to take longer to heal.
