The Accident

You've been in an automobile accident. Your car is totaled or in the Shop. You're missing work and your vacation or personal time is almost exhausted. You have major medical bills and face a long period of physical therapy after you recover. And, it was the other driver's fault!

The other driver's insurance representative keeps calling you. He or she is oh, so nice and concerned about you. The company won't admit liability, but they offer to give you a lump sum settlement now to cover your estimated medical costs. Maybe they offer to pay for a rental car while your car is being repaired, or to pay the deductible to your insurance company for the repairs. But, they want an answer NOW, before you can talk to an attorney. They may tell you that you don't need an attorney, the two of you can work things out. You're confused - what is the best thing to do?

STOP. DON’T TALK TO THEM.  FIND AN ATTORNEY

 Below are some things to think about before you make a decision. This is just a partial list of what a Personal Injury Attorney can do for you:

  • What if you miss work, but you get disability and use your vacation/personal leave time? Your attorney can still claim loss of wages for all the time you were off of work
  • What if you settled without an attorney and your medical expenses exceeded your settlement? You would be out of luck. Your attorney will not settle your case until all your treatment is finished and all the bills are in. If future treatment is indicated, he will include that in his settlement proposal. He can also negotiate with the healthcare providers to reduce your bills, so you keep more of the settlement money
  • What if you need a Specialist not covered by your insurance?
  • Were there other people in your car? Maybe a child who will have scars that can't be fixed until they're full-grown?
  • What happens if you will be unable to return to the same line of work you were in before the accident?
