In addition, insurance companies don’t always account for the following when proposing a settlement for your injury claim:
Loss of income
Lifelong health issues
Reduced quality of life
An indeterminate amount of medical expenses due to the nature of your injury
And more

Why Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Protection Against Insurance Scams
The last thing insurance companies want to do is pay a claim. Often, settlement offers are made immediately following the accident and without a full understanding of theinjuries or losses incurred. This can mean a lowballed offer that will hardly cover the victim’s needs, or no offer at all by way of arguing that the claim is invalid.
People are most vulnerable when they’re scared and hurting, and car accident victims often take the first offer presented to them, not knowing they could get so much more. Once payment is accepted, the victim cannot sue, nor file a new claim for more money. For insurance companies, this is their best-case scenario.
Bigger Settlements
A 2014 study done by the Insurance Research Council (IRC) reported that auto injury claimants who filed claims with the aid of a specialized car accident lawyer or attorney received settlements up to 3½ times larger than claimants who filed on their own in the States.

The Personal Injury Claim Process
1
Overview
It is absolutely crucial to note that when you file a ‘claim’, you are enforcing your legal right to be compensated for your physical, financial, and mental suffering. The first step is a formal legal demand, or claim, made with the help of your personal injury lawyer or attorney. If the insurance company refuses to negotiate a fair settlement based on the formal demand, then your legal representative will file a lawsuit. Once your claim has moved into court, it is officially considered a ‘case’.
2
Notifying the Insurance Companies Involved
Following the accident, you should notify your insurance company, as well as the insurance company of the party who caused your injuries, as soon as possible. Only provide basic information about the accident, such as the date and approximate time. Do not answer any questions, admit fault, or accept any settlement offers. You are simply putting it on record that an accident occurred and that you were injured. Your attorney will communicate with them from that point forward.
