Have you recently been involved in an accident, whether it’s a vehicle accident or premises liability accident?
Hi, I’m Syndel, the managing attorney here at Knoll Law Group and this video is going to explain three reasons why you need to hire an attorney after an accident.
Bodily Injury Claims Against an Insurance Company
Now, any person can bring their bodily injury claims against an insurance company. But why would you do that? Insurance companies love to prey on the non-represented claimant. And really, the matter of fact is insurance companies are going to undervalue your case if you’re not represented by an attorney.
Receive the Amount You Deserve
So, number one, insurance companies assume that if you do not hire an attorney, they can settle your case for pennies on the dollar. Insurance companies and the individual adjusters you deal with, and their team of lawyers, are going to work very hard to significantly reduce the value of your case. And even deny your claim altogether. You’re going to likely hit a lot of roadblocks because they assume you do not understand the law and that you’re willing to accept the least amount owed.
Insurance Companies Will Fight You on Liability
Number two, insurance companies love to fight you on liability. Now, not all accidents are clear liability, meaning who is at fault is disputed. And insurance companies are really going to claim that their policy holder is not liable for the accent, or minimally liable.
And even when you have clear liability, as we seem time and time again, insurance companies like to refuse to concede to 100% liability and fight you on it till the very end.
Focus on Your Recovery
Number three, let the experts handle your case so you don’t have to deal with a headache. You’ve just been in an accident, you’re dealing with the aches and pains and recovering from your injuries, you do not want to be dealing with unsympathetic insurance adjusters who just do not care about your well-being. You need to get onto the road to recovery faster, so let the lawyers handle your case.
