Without legal representation, insurance companies are known for trying to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. If you choose to speak with an insurance company without representation, Morrin Law recommends you follow these principles:
Never trust insurance companies (even your own) to be on your side, despite how sympathetic they may seem to your injuries;
Remember insurance companies will look out for their best interests;
Remember insurance companies work on limiting payouts or denying claims to protect their own profit; and
The best way to protect yourself and your personal injury claim is to work with a personal injury attorney who is experienced at negotiating with strict insurance companies.
