What are the benefits of hiring a car accident lawyer?
Second, a lawyer can accurately assess the value of your claim. This includes economic damages like medical bills, property loss and wage loss as well as noneconomic damages like pain and suffering.
Third, a car accident attorney can typically achieve a much higher settlement than you could otherwise expect. It is very difficult for most people to successfully negotiate with insurance companies on their own. When you hire a personal injury attorney, you show the insurance company that you are serious about compensation, and you will be represented by a legal professional whose job is to maximize the value of your claim.
Finally, an attorney protects your rights and prevents missteps that could weaken your case. Insurers are looking for any reason to deny or minimize your claim. Our injury lawyers face off with insurers every day. We understand the tricks and tactics they use and we are not intimidated or fooled by them. We even communicate with them on your behalf so that you can focus on your own recovery.
Why is the insurance company trying to blame me for my motorcycle accident?
Our lawyers understand that many motorcycle wrecks occur simply because drivers fail to keep a lookout for bikers or to give them the space and respect they deserve. When we represent you, our attorneys will work diligently to prove fault and seek full compensation.
