Should You Hire a Bay Area Car Accident Lawyer?
Car accidents and the injuries they cause can be devastating. They may result in personal and financial burdens that can become overwhelming.
Car accidents can cause serious physical and emotional injuries. They may result in significant medical bills, repair bills, and lost wages. The burdens may affect not only you but your family and loved ones, too.
Dealing with insurance companies, and bill collectors from hospitals, doctors’ offices, and insurance companies can be overwhelming.
Hiring an experienced car accident attorney can help you reduce these burdens and allow you to focus on the most important thing – getting better.
Auto Insurance companies are Focused on Only One Thing – Maximizing their Profits
Auto insurance carriers will do everything they can to pay as little as possible on your claim. They may employ tactics that frustrate, confuse, and exhaust you.
Common Auto Insurance Company Tactics to Pay Less
They may tell you that you are partially at fault for the accident and therefore, the other driver is not required to pay for all the damage to your car, your medical bills, and lost wages – (even when the other driver hit you from behind, or when the other driver was obviously in the wrong and 100% at fault).
They may tell you the car accident was not significant enough to cause your injuries OR that your injuries existed before the accident, and therefore, they will only pay you part of your damages.
They may tell you the amount of your hospital and doctor bills are not ordinary, and as a result, they will only pay you for part of your medical bills.
They may drag out the process by asking you for medical records and other documents – then after you send the records, they’ll stop responding to you. When you hear from them again, they may tell you they didn’t get everything and ask you to send it all again.
They may run you around in circles asking for documents, and information repeatedly trying to cause a delay in hopes you will get tired, give up and take less money OR miss the deadline to file a lawsuit allowing them to reject your claim entirely.
Hiring an auto accident attorney can help lessen the burden on you.
