When you’ve been injured in an accident, you want the best legal representation you can get. How do you choose the right personal injury attorney in Las Vegas? According to Jon Remmel of Remmel and Spear, an experienced accident lawyer in Las Vegas, there are several things to look for in a personal injury attorney. One of the most important, he says, is accessibility.
“You’ve got to have confidence in your attorney,” Remmel says. “You’ve got to be able to reach out and make a phone call or send an email, and be able to speak with your attorney directly.” This is something, he says, you simply won’t find with a big firm.
Big Firm Experience
An attorney’s experience should be a significant factor in whether or not to hire him, Remmel says. Both he and Rob Spear, his partner, have experience working with big, prestigious law firms. In fact, Spear has previously been associated with one of the largest commercial litigation firms in the area, and has dealt with some of the biggest bankruptcies in the history of the state.
Remmel himself has been associated with some of the most successful personal injury law firms in the U.S. “I was part of a firm that collected over $140 million in compensation and verdicts over a four-year period,” he says. At Remmel and Spear, clients get the benefit of their attorneys’ big firm experience while enjoying a small firm atmosphere.
Accessibility
Working with a big firm, Remmel says, often means that you don’t get the kind of personalized attention you’d like from your personal injury attorney. But at Remmel and Spear, both partners work hard to ensure that clients feel cared for and attended to. “When you come to our office,” he says, “you can expect to meet directly with your attorney. You don’t have to go through multiple gatekeepers like secretaries and paralegals before you can get to the person you really want to talk to.”
This, Remmel says, is just part of Remmel and Spear’s commitment to providing great service and responsiveness. In most cases, Remmel is able to return clients’ calls or emails within 24 hours. “Obviously, I’m not always going to be available, but that’s the type of office we run – we’re responsive to our clients’ needs because we genuinely care about the people who hire us.”
Passionate Representation
Both Remmel and Spear are passionate about what they do. And when you’re faced with a potentially life-changing injury, you shouldn’t settle for anything less.
So what drives Remmel to exclusively handle personal injury cases? “I really have a deep personal interest in this field,” he says. “This is what I’ve done for my entire career. And I just feel like I need to help these people.”
