someone rear-ended my wife's car on freeway while she was on her way to work. as a result she has persistent pain in back and neck. her doctor adivises rest, painkillers and therapy. other party has acknowledged their fault to their insurance company and their insurance adjuster has said that they will pay loss of wages and medical expenses after she recovers. we are concerned that she may take a long time to recover and we may not be paid adequately for the injury and inconvenience for our faimily caused as a result of this accident.

We have never worked with attoneys and the prospect appears daunting to us. Can anyone advise how we should go ahead?

Figure out actual and direct damages in a dollar amount and then figure out the dollar amount of what you think you will lose in the future.

It will help the lawyer out a lot.
