Personal injury attorneys play an important role in fighting the INjustice system. If not for them, people injured by corporations and/or fighting an insurance company would be at the mercy of deep-pocketed corporations with armies of lawyers.
In this episode, Casey Krizman sits down with Sean Olson, whose firm helps people injured in hospitals, oil fields, and roadways get their bills paid and reimbursement for other losses. The “PI attorneys” often get a bad rap, but Sean explains how the cases he has handled reinforce his confidence that he is, indeed, balancing the scales of justice for his clients.
Sean says a key service provided by personal injury attorneys is relieving people of the burden of dealing with the bureaucracies set up by corporations. It is a long process, often made longer by insurance companies that make their money by holding on to the premiums paid by their clients for as long as they can. A personal injury firm covers the costs of investigations, which can be substantial. A personal injury client does not pay up front, but allows their lawyer to take a percentage of the settlement as reimbursement for those initial cost outlays.
Sean responds to criticism that personal injury practices drive up the cost of insurance premiums. They are the only conduit most injured people have to the justice system. He revisits the McDonald’s coffee case to illustrate exactly how corporations calculate human suffering against profit, and shares a gut-wrenching active case involving a little girl who died from medical malpractice while her family has spent nearly five years fighting a system designed to outlast them.
Sean’s message is simple: the jury system remains one of the last true equalizers in American life, and personal injury attorneys are how ordinary people get a seat at that table.
