Let's see how to best position your claim for success, consider a settlement amount. Don't skip to the first offer. Have the appraiser justify a low offer. Learn more about negotiating your personal injury claim.
Studies show that not only are you more likely to get compensation if you have an attorney in a personal injury case, but your settlement will be higher. This is because personal injury lawyers don't just accept the first offer that is made. They negotiate and push for the maximum amount possible. If you have hired an attorney, let them negotiate with the adjuster on your behalf.
The insurance company will examine your injury the same way your lawyer did. You should expect the insurer to know everything there is to know about your case. Or, if you were injured in a slip and fall accident, you would normally file an insurance claim with the commercial property insurance company. My best advice is to start the process as soon as the accident has occurred and you have sought medical treatment.
Be sure to consolidate your records as evidence early in the process to ensure that every detail is taken into account. It's worth getting a free case evaluation with an experienced lawyer if negotiations to reach a car accident settlement break down.
