The Personal Injury Handbook for Maryland, the District of Columbia, and Virginia: The Nuts and Bolts of Handling a Personal Injury Case from Beginning to End and How to Make a Living Doing So by Steven D. Campen, Esq.
Law school typically teaches theory and not the practicalities of practicing law and running a law firm financially. The Personal Injury Handbook is meant to instruct new lawyers and those just beginning to practice personal injury law, from organizing the firm, to obtaining clients, to dealing with the myriad of insurance issues that attend each such case. It guides the reader from investigation of the case though strategies to settling it, as well as the steps to litigate the case, if necessary, from filing the complaint in the proper forum to trying the case before a jury. It also includes all the forms necessary to handle each case at every interval and in both state and federal courts.
The Personal Injury Handbook will also be exceedingly beneficial to longtime personal injury lawyers who often have cases in all jurisdictions, particularly because it provides an easy cross-reference to laws in all three jurisdictions and in federal court.
