How are personal injury attorneys affected by the recession?
Some areas of law including bankruptcy, business, real estate and family law seem to be affected by the bad economy in either direction. Although bankruptcy and family attorneys may find more clients who are going through rough times due to the economy, most other lawyers and law firms have experienced in decrease in the number of cases in recent years. What about personal injury? How is your personal injury practice affected by the recession? I have not seem to experienced any notable changes personally.

Personal injury practice doesn't seem to be so negatively affected by the recession. It seems there are just as many frivolous / good cases as before. There has been some increase of drivers without a proper insurance or at least drivers with substantially lowered policy auto insurance limits. This can make a case not worth as much if the injury well exceeds the policy limit. Collecting from a deficiency claim also rarely works if the individual is someone who already lowered his limits that much.

Nice discussion is going on. Though I don't think economic inflation could affect personal injury law and practices. Reason being that law proceedings can't be stopped even if national or international economy is going through crisis.

Many people probably reduced their policy limits so attorneys may not get enough at the end or just less attractive cases.

All of us knows that recession year was a terrible year for many of us financially. Its also becomes a major issue for the insurance company. The indirect result is to force claimants and their attorneys to file more lawsuits. Tallahassee Personal Injury Lawyers

Beyond whether the cases are frivolous as a result of people needing money, I would say that accidents are recession-proof. Whether unemployment is down or up, there will always be accidents. Perhaps with the economy down, more people are working longer hours to make ends meet which could raise the risk of injury on the job or commuting to their job increase.

I have found that after a pause of 1-2 years personal injury litigation improves. Jury awards go up as jurors show more sympathy to the victim as they are struggling more or fear being in a comparable spot. Also, more cases are on hand as people who felt safe in the past would not file and were more apt to say accidents happen are more liable to seek justice.
