How Injury Cases Are Evaluated
Personal injury cases are evaluated based on multiple factors, including the accident, injuries, treatment, and overall impact.
Every personal injury case is different, and there isn’t a simple formula for deciding whether a case is worth pursuing. I evaluate each case individually, looking at multiple factors — how the accident happened, how serious the injuries are, the medical treatment and documentation involved, and how the injury has affected your daily life. The focus is on understanding the full picture. From there, I consider how the claim is supported, how the insurance company is likely to approach it, and what path makes the most sense moving forward. My role is to guide you through that process, explain what matters, and help you make informed decisions about how to proceed with your case.

What Our Clients Say
“Working with Joshua Perlman has been one of the most painless experiences I’ve ever had. He is far from the stereotypical lawyer that you usually hear most people complain about. Josh is the most helpful, considerate, and compassionate professional that I’ve had the privilege of working with. He is truly knowledgeable in his craft and it shows. He always makes time for his client questions and concerns and never complains about it being burdensome. Despite my case being settled, we still keep in contact and I consider him to be a very dear friend of mine. If I had another case that required more legal representation, I wouldn’t hesitate to call him. I HIGHLY recommend working with Josh as you won’t find another lawyer who is willing to go above and beyond for your needs”

“My Dad got into a motorcycle accident last year and my current lawyer recommended Josh to help with my case. Josh is professional, kind and fully explained everything every step of the way. He followed up with us, fought for us after my Dad was over and done with the case but reassured him he deserves more. One year later our settlement was MORE than my Dad expected. I highly recommend working with Josh regarding any PI concerns. He is masterful in his practice and a pleasure to work with. I hope I never see him again but if I am in that situation I would not hesitate calling Joshua Perlman.”

“Josh was absolutely amazing. He stuck with us for a long period of time and kept us well informed. He remained calm under pressure and effectively solved any obstacle that came his way. He consistently delivered quality and goes above and beyond to ensure a positive outcome. He is honest and guides you throughout the process. I now consider him a dear friend having worked with us through a very difficult time. I would highly recommend him.”

“I was in a tough spot and needed to find an incredibly professional, courteous and honest lawyer, Joshua Perlman was your man. I knew nothing about lawyers and Joshua was more than helpful and honest about all my dealings from the first phone conversation. Not only was he professional but he was extremely down to earth and caring. It is not every day you find yourself an attorney who truly cares. He was there to defend me from the beginning, all the way until the payout. He was quick to respond to all of my millions of questions. I continue to thank Joshua Perlman for being amazing
at his defense of me. Take my advice, go with
Joshua Perlman and you’ll be happy you did”
