If you have suffered an injury, you undoubtedly want to try and forget about it and move on with your life. Many people are overwhelmed by the insurance claim process and—to put the accident behind them—are willing to take whatever their insurance company is offering. Such settlements, however, often amount to far less than the total expenses you accumulate throughout your recovery.
If you are unsure about your claim, it is a good idea to contact a personal injury attorney who will provide you with a professional opinion regarding that claim. There are, however, certain factors that you can consider in determining whether you need a personal injury attorney.
The Nature of Your Injuries
If the injuries you have suffered are serious, permanent, ongoing, or long lasting, you will probably face hidden and unexpected expenses over time that you never anticipated (and therefore, for which you did not ask to be compensated). These expenses can be associated with future lost wages, lost earning power, long-term medical expenses, the emotional cost of pain and suffering, and loss of consortium. If you have suffered a severe injury, it is in your best interest to consult with a personal injury attorney who knows how to consider your future losses as well as your existing ones.
The Magnitude of Your Personal Injury Claim
Personal injury claims in Florida necessitate complicated paperwork and the process can quickly become overwhelming. Right after you have been in an accident may not be the best time to try and navigate such a complicated process on your own. Further, the process involves specific requirements and deadlines, and mistakes can impede your claim’s progress and your resulting compensation. Our experienced Florida personal injury attorneys have the knowledge and commitment to skillfully guide personal injury claims toward full compensation—while our clients concentrate on regaining their strength and health.
Your Insurer’s Offer
Your insurer is in the business of dispensing with claims in a manner that is advantageous to the insurance company. Never assume that your insurance provider’s offer is adequate to cover your losses. If you are looking at a settlement offer that seems low to you, it probably is—consult with a Florida personal injury lawyer to make sure. Further, if your fair submission of a personal injury claim has been denied outright, you need an attorney to fight for your rights. Your personal injury attorney will efficiently compile your claim’s necessary documentation and will negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf. Your claim matters and you deserve to be fully compensated for the damages you have endured.
