Missing a single detail can dramatically weaken your injury case — even if your injury seems straightforward. At Inzina Law, we handle every case together, as a husband-and-wife legal team. Why? Because two perspectives mean we catch what other lawyers might miss.
1. Why Two Perspectives Matter
Different People, Different Comfort Levels
Clients open up in different ways. People naturally share different parts of their story depending on the setting, the questions asked, or simply how they’re feeling in the moment. By both being engaged, we create more opportunities for clients to feel comfortable and express the full range of their experiences — ensuring their case is represented as completely and authentically as possible.
Collaboration That Strengthens Every Case
We don’t split cases into “his” and “hers.” We both review everything — medical records, testimony, evidence, and strategy. Because we bring different perspectives and experiences to each step, our collaboration often uncovers nuances that strengthen the case and ensure nothing is left on the table.
Actionable Tip: Whether you work with a single lawyer or a team, always ask how your case is reviewed. Multiple layers of review — whether by attorneys, paralegals, or experts — help ensure nothing important is missed.
2. Using the Insurance Playbook — Your Strategic Advantage
We Know the Defense Tactics
Having defended insurance carriers, we know how they value, delay, and discount claims. For instance, carriers often use lowball offers early hoping clients will settle.
Your Counterplay
We prepare robust documentation — detailed medical narratives, wage-loss calculations, and third-party statements — to counter those tactics. When the initial offer lands low, we immediately have the evidence to push back.
Actionable Tip: From day one, track all medical visits, out-of-pocket costs, lost wages, and exactly how your injuries limit your daily life. Use apps like InjuryDiary or receipts and checklists to keep organized records.
3. Building the Strongest Possible Claim — Step by Step
|
Stage |
Strategy |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Early Documentation |
Gather ER notes, photos, witness info, and initial pain statements. |
Establishes a clear injury baseline. |
|
Medical Continuity |
See your doctor regularly and follow treatment plans. |
Shows ongoing impact — insurers respect consistent care records. |
|
Lifestyle Evidence |
Keep receipts for personal help (rides, household chores), and photos showing changes. |
Doesn’t show up in bills but affects value. |
|
Work Impact |
Document return-to-work status, light-duty notes, or reduced hours. |
Lost wages and diminished capacity often drive settlement value. |
|
Review & Sync |
We both comb through every aspect of the case. By reviewing records, testimony, and strategy together, we bring two perspectives to the same details. |
The combined view creates a more complete picture that helps ensure nothing gets missed. |
4. Avoiding Common Pitfalls That Hurt Recovery
-
Delayed medical care — Waiting weeks to see a doctor can hurt causation.
-
Gaps in treatment — Inconsistency gives insurance an excuse to reduce value.
-
Inadequate documentation of pain or limitations — You don’t always say “I’m weak,” but that counts.
-
Posting your injury on social media — Even an innocent beach photo can be weaponized to reduce value.
Actionable Tip: Keep a daily journal of symptoms and limitations, and stay consistent with appointments — even by phone or telehealth.
5. Putting It All Together — The Two-Person Approach in Action
When we handle a case, we’re both involved at every stage. Sometimes one of us will connect with a client in a way that brings out medical details; other times, the other may surface lifestyle or emotional impacts. The point is — by both being present and engaged, we capture a fuller, more authentic story.
Those added details — whether it’s the struggle of lifting a toddler, the fear of getting back behind the wheel, or the financial stress of missed work — can be the difference between a case that feels ordinary and one that truly resonates with a judge, jury, or adjuster.
By combining our perspectives, we ensure your case is presented as completely and compellingly as possible.
