Insurance companies often act quickly after an accident, hoping they can settle a potential claim before you are aware of all the damages you suffered. They continue to do this because it is an effective tactic for them. Many accident victims will accept a few thousand dollars because it seems like a lot of money. Only later do they realize it only covers a fraction of their accident-related medical bills and other damages. By then, though, they’ve given up their right to further compensation.This is one reason it is paramount to call us quickly after a crash. We can help you understand the full value of your economic and non-economic damages, and fight for a fair settlement or award based on the facts of your case.
