Filing an Insurance Claim After an Injury Accident
After an accident, you will likely need to file an insurance claim against the at-fault party. But this process often comes with its fair share of hurdles. Though insurance companies market themselves as reliable allies during difficult times, their actions during the claims process often suggest otherwise. In reality, their primary goal is to make money.
To that end, insurance companies pay out as little as possible, which might mean trying to discredit or undervalue your case.
The best way to recognize and counter insurance company tactics is to work with a knowledgeable attorney. With a lawyer’s guidance, you can effectively present your claim and hold the insurance company to the terms of the policy it sold. That way, your settlement accurately reflects the full range of your harm.
Personal Injury FAQs
Here are some of the most common questions we get about Georgia injury cases, complete with the straightforward answers you need.
What Should I Do After an Accident to Protect My Rights?
First, seek medical attention if you have not done so already so a doctor can diagnose, treat, and document your injuries.
Document the incident by taking photographs and obtaining witness information. Report the incident to the appropriate authorities and insurance companies, but avoid giving detailed statements or signing anything without legal counsel. Most importantly, consult an attorney as soon as possible. They can help you with any of the above steps you could not do already.
Do I Need an Attorney if the Insurance Company Offers Me a Settlement?
Yes. Even if an insurance company offers a settlement, call us. Insurers frequently offer lowball amounts, hoping accident victims don’t know any better. Rest assured, whatever they offer at first is less than you deserve – and less than a lawyer can help you pursue.
An experienced attorney can evaluate offers to confirm they cover all your losses and potential future needs.
How Do I Know if I Have a Valid Personal Injury Claim?
If you suffered an injury that you would not have but for someone else’s behavior, you could have a valid claim. Factors that could affect your case include the available evidence and the nature of the liable parties. Speak with an attorney for a comprehensive case review.
