Sometimes, the at-fault party’s insurance will pay a third-party claim without hesitation. However, insurance companies are in the business of making money. To protect their financial assets, insurance providers aim to avoid responsibility for large payouts. Representatives often use tactics to lower their financial liability. For example, representatives may delay communication, shift liability, attempt to show a different source caused the injuries, or discredit the severity of the injuries.
Experienced South Carolina personal injury attorneys are distinctly familiar with insurance company tactics, and may assist injured victims by communicating and negotiating with representatives of their behalf. Through their knowledge of personal injury law and experience with the claims process, they are skilled at countering insurance companies’ attempts to devalue injured victims’ claims.
