Legal Assistant

My name is Atta Hararah, and I am a Legal Assistant at CEO Lawyer. Before joining the team, I was a practicing lawyer in Gaza City, Palestine, specializing in insurance and compensation law. With 15 years of experience as a personal injury and compensation attorney, I represented clients in a variety of cases, including car accidents, truck accidents, medical malpractice, workers’ compensation, property damage, fire and flood claims, and cases involving natural disasters like earthquakes.

During my career in Palestine, I successfully handled many high-profile cases, representing both individuals and companies, and secured fair compensation for my clients. I deeply understand the challenges faced by those who have experienced accidents, injuries, or damages—whether physical, psychological, or financial—and I am committed to providing them with the support and legal protection they need in such difficult times. My goal is always to ensure that my clients are not taken advantage of and that they receive the maximum compensation they deserve, ultimately achieving justice and stability for the community. There is no worse feeling than the sense of injustice.

Outside of my legal work, I enjoy reading poetry and Arabic literature, as well as playing sports.

Frequently Asked Questions

Take a look at some of the most common personal injury law questions for general information, and then reach out to one of our seasoned attorneys for specific guidance on your case!

What Is My Personal Injury Case Worth?

The value of your case depends on several factors, including the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and the impact on your life. Each personal injury case is unique, and the combination of these factors varies from one case to another. An experienced personal injury lawyer can provide you with a more precise estimate of your case’s value by reviewing the specific details of your situation. They will analyze similar cases in your jurisdiction, consider the legal precedents, and use their knowledge of past settlements and verdicts to gauge a realistic potential outcome for your case. This estimate helps you understand what you might expect regarding compensation and guides the negotiation or litigation process to ensure you receive a fair settlement.

What Should I Do Immediately After an Accident?

After an accident, seek medical attention immediately, even if you feel fine, to address any hidden injuries. Document everything, including photos of the scene and contact information for witnesses. Gathering witness statements is crucial because they provide an objective account of the accident, supporting your version of events and strengthening your personal injury claim. Report the incident to the proper authorities, such as the police or property owner. Finally, contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to discuss your legal options and protect your rights, ensuring you receive fair compensation for your injuries.

How Much Will a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?

Most personal injury lawyers operate on a contingency fee basis, which means that you don’t have to pay any upfront fees or hourly rates. Instead, the lawyer’s payment is contingent upon the outcome of your case. If you win your case, whether through a settlement or a court judgment, the lawyer will receive a percentage of the compensation awarded to you. If you don't win your case, you usually won’t owe the lawyer any fees for their services.

How Long Will It Take to Resolve My Personal Injury Case?

The timeline for resolving a personal injury case can vary significantly based on a variety of factors, making it difficult to predict exactly how long your case will take. The complexity of the case is a major determining factor. For instance, straightforward cases with clear liability and minimal disputes over damages can sometimes be resolved relatively quickly, often within a few months. These cases may involve negotiating a fair settlement with the insurance company, which can happen promptly if all parties are cooperative and the evidence is strong.
