Why Should I Look For a Personal Injury Lawyer Following My Accident?
Unfortunately, settlement offers from insurance companies usually compensate for only the bare minimum of a victim’s injuries or losses. Compensation amounts may also be far too low for the injuries sustained, and sometimes insurance companies may even argue that the victim’s claim is invalid and not payout at all.
Furthermore, insurance companies count on the victims taking these initial offers so that the claim can be closed as quickly as possible, so that the victim will fall into a false sense of security with what they’ve been compensated with. Sadly, once you accept their payment, you cannot go back and file a new claimor sue for more money.
Hiring a personal injury lawyer to represent you and your family is the best way to ensure that your rights are protected and that your settlement is fair.

Helping You Through Your Injury Claim
1
Overview
When you file a ‘claim’ it means that you’re telling the insurance company that you are enforcing your legal right to be compensated (or paid) for your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, pain, and suffering. The claim is usually submitted to the insurance company that represents the person or persons who caused your injuries. At first, your claim will be a formal legal demand made with the help of your personal injury lawyer. No courts or judges will be involved. However, if the insurance company refuses to negotiate a fair settlement based on the formal demand, then your attorney will file a lawsuit. At that point, your claim will be considered a ‘case’ and will follow the court systems rules and timeline.

Notify the Insurance Companies
As soon as possible following the accident, you should notify your insurance company, as well as the insurance company representing the negligent party who caused your injuries. You will give them basic information about the accident, such as the date and approximate time, and that is all. Do not answer any questions, do not admit any fault, and do not accept any settlement offers. You are simply putting it on record that an accident occurred and that you were injured. Your attorney will handle all other communications with them from that point on.
