You can lose your personal injury case, believe it or not, in two ways.
One: You can lose it at trial. A judge or a jury can find that the other driver—especially within Maryland’s contributory negligence laws—was not negligent, and you can lose that way.
Another way you can lose, and a more common way, is when clients accept offers that are way below the value that their case is worth. Bad faith offers from the insurance companies.
