Experience and Specialization

Personal Injury Focus

Look for attorneys who work solely in personal injury, not general practice.

Track Record of Results

Ask about past settlements or verdicts in similar cases — especially in Arkansas courts.

Questions to Ask During a Consultation

Fee Structure

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis — no fees unless they win. Ask for this upfront.

Case Strategy and Communication

Ask:

Who will handle my case?
How often will I get updates?
What’s the expected timeline?

Transparency matters.

Local Knowledge Matters

Arkansas Courts, Juries, and Insurers

Local attorneys understand:

How local judges rule
Insurance company tactics in Arkansas
Local medical and expert networks

This gives you an edge most out-of-state lawyers don’t have.

Client Reviews and Reputation

Check:

Online reviews
Testimonials
Peer referrals
