Woodward have vigorously and competently represented clients for matters on all islands in the State of Hawaii while maintaining a high degree of contact and communication with our clients by phone, by email and by regular mail. Accident Lawyer Hawaii - Maui & Kauai In order to maintain prompt contact - every effort is made to respond to communications the day that they occur. For our Outer Island clients with Maui, Kauai, Hawaii and Outer Island claims we have frequently advanced the costs of travel for depositions and client conferences here in Honolulu. Frequently, an attorney will also visit you on your home island to travel with you to the accident scene and/or to see and record the impact of the injuries on your life.

Handling an Outer Island injury claim from a main office in Honolulu does not pose any significant challenges to a timely and successful prosecution of the claim. Regardless of which island an accident takes place on, the investigative workup of the case usually will be done by local investigators hired by this office.

Once that is completed, there may be expert witness workup of the facts and circumstances of the case.

Hence, there is generally a slight time and costs savings when working with an expert witness on an Outer Island case if the attorney is located in Honolulu.

Once the proper workup has been done, efforts to settle the claim with the applicable insurance companies often require high level negotiations with management of the insurer.

Hence, the real nuts and bolts negotiation on most insurance settlements takes place right here in Honolulu - with your attorney and often the insurance adjuster both trying to get - the insurer's management to come through with a reasonable value to settle a case. In short, it is often an advantage to have a Honolulu attorney when settlement negotiations are taking place.

Some accidents happen and the victims don't know who hit them. In such cases, a negligent driver can sometimes be found through law enforcement, video cameras, and investigation. See, Woman Settles for $3 Million After Being Run Over by School Bus. In addition, in other cases, the injured parties may be able to pursue insurance coverages that are designed to fill in such gaps - such as Uninsured Motorist Insurance and/or Underinsured Motorist Insurance.
