Many people believe they can handle negotiating with an insurance company on their own. Before you deal with an insurance adjuster, consider these warnings:
Insurance companies don’t make money by paying every medical bill. Your insurance company will avoid paying your bills if they think they can get away with it. Make sure you review your policy carefully to determine which bills and procedures should be covered.
Your insurance company will often give you a low settlement offer in hopes that you will accept it quickly and not cause problems. These initial offers are often much less than you should receive.
Your adjuster will keep a record of things you say which may give the company a reason to deny your claim. The adjuster will want you to agree with the company’s version of events, which may not be the truth. Never sign any paperwork or give any statements before talking to an attorney like those at Anderson, Cummings & Drawhorn.
Insurers could even use data from the tracking device in your own vehicle to dispute the validity of your claim.
A common tactic of insurance companies is to ignore claimants until they go away. By ignoring a claim, insurance companies may hope that you will give up, or wait so long that the statute of limitations to file a lawsuit will expire.
An insurance company may try to force you to pay them by threatening you with collections letters or even the loss of your drivers license. If an insurance company is threatening you, speak with an attorney and learn what your rights and obligations are.
Insurance companies have more resources and information than the average accident victim. Don’t take on these multi-million dollar companies on your own. The Fort Worth, TX personal injury lawyers at Anderson & Cummings have the experience and the attitude that you need on your side.
