A Meridian client
What do Meridian clients say about working with Nora?
In their own words, from a Meridian client after a car accident.

Nora called me back the same afternoon and explained everything in plain words. I never had to chase anyone for an update.
After a crash
What should you do after a crash on Eagle Road or I-84?
These steps protect your health first and your claim second. Do what you safely can. If you missed one, that is common and usually fixable.
Get out of traffic
Move out of the travel lanes if you can do it safely, then call 911. On I-84, stay well away from passing cars.
Get checked the same day
Whiplash and concussions can take hours to show. St. Luke's has a hospital on Eagle Road, and urgent care is close by.
Photograph everything
Take photos of the cars, the lanes, any construction signs and your injuries. Get names and insurers of drivers and witnesses.
Call us before a statement
Report the crash to your own insurer. Talk to a lawyer before giving the other driver's insurer a recorded statement.

Questions
What do Meridian residents ask after a crash?
This website is for general information and is not legal advice. Every case is different. For advice about your own situation, call (208) 555-0132.
Do I have to drive to Boise to meet a lawyer?
No. Most Meridian clients start with a phone or video call. You can also meet Nora at our downtown Boise office, a short drive up I-84, or at home if you cannot travel.
Which court handles a Meridian injury case?
Meridian is in Ada County. If a lawsuit is needed, a case from a Meridian crash is generally filed at the Ada County Courthouse in downtown Boise. Most claims settle without a trial.
Who pays my medical bills after a crash in Meridian?
Idaho is an at-fault state, so the driver who caused the crash, through their insurer, is usually responsible. While the claim is open, your health insurance or medical payments coverage may pay first.
What if I was partly at fault for the crash?
You may still recover. Under Idaho's comparative fault rule, you can recover if your share of the blame is less than the other side's. Your share reduces the amount.
How long do I have to bring an injury claim in Idaho?
Most Idaho injury lawsuits must be filed within 2 years of the injury. A claim against a city, a county or the state often needs written notice within 180 days. Call early so no deadline is missed.
