Savvy NY Personal Injury Lawyers Take on Accident Insurance Reps so You Can Focus on Recovery
Motor vehicle accident personal injury cases can become incredibly complex. While you need compensation today to pay your living expenses, you also don’t want to leave money on the table by accepting a low-ball insurance company settlement offer.
After a crash – whether you driving a car, riding a motorcycle or traveling in a bus or taxi – your world is likely to quickly become all about doctors and rehabs and physical therapy facilities and insurance companies. You have little choice when it comes to getting medical treatment; it’s critically important to tend to your physical and emotional injuries immediately. Any delay could translate into permanent damage.
That being said, it’s likely you’ll be contacted soon after the accident by a representative from the other driver’s insurance company. You may also be contacted by your own insurance company. Both companies will want an account of what happened. You may feel you have no choice but to answer their questions.
Stop! Before speaking with anyone from any insurance carrier, contact a skilled personal injury lawyer. The insurance company representative will sound very compassionate. They will express concern about your injuries and exhibit disgust over what has happened.
However, rest assured that while they may be genuinely caring people, they are calling you out of obligation to do their jobs. Their job is to pay out the least amount of money necessary in your case. This means, most often they will want to collect information and say it’s in an effort to provide you with a settlement offer. They will say something like, “why pay a lawyer when you can just cash this check and move on with your life?”
There is an excellent reason to contact a personal injury lawyer who will protect your rights and speak on your behalf while negotiating your settlement. Depending on the circumstances in your, often the settlement that you are offered at first will be far lower than a good lawyer can negotiate for you.
