Many people believe they are capable of filing a car accident claim on their own. However, the process is complex and full of pitfalls. If you do not have experience navigating the world of personal injury law, you might not know the true value of your losses. A lack of understanding of how the process works can cause you to inadvertently devalue your claim. Moreover, insurance companies are notorious for doing everything they can to avoid paying out large sums of money. Insurance adjusters are almost certain to question you in a way that may lead you to accept responsibility for the accident. You may not be fully aware of their tactics, but saying the wrong thing can cost you the compensation you deserve.
