Will My Lawyer Negotiate with an Auto Insurance Company?

Free Consultation No fee unless we win!

    When you hire a car accident lawyer, they will negotiate with the other driver’s auto insurance company and your carrier. Negotiating on your own with the insurance company is not recommended. It could leave you with less money than you deserve or even result in your claim being denied entirely. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts to claimants by utilizing various negotiating tactics, including making lowball offers that they know will not fully cover your damages. Car accident victims are often tempted to accept less money than they deserve when they face exorbitant, growing medical bills and lost wages from being unable to work. Experienced claims adjusters will try to take advantage of your desperate circumstances by offering a payout well below your claim’s actual value. They may also attempt to take statements you make out of context and use them to justify denying your claim. This is where an experienced car accident lawyer enters the picture; they will negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf, doing everything possible to ensure the settlement is fair.

    Experienced Virginia Beach car accident lawyers will investigate your accident and, with the help of crash reconstructionists, forensic experts, and healthcare specialists, gather evidence to show how the crash occurred, who was at fault, and the long-term total cost of your injuries will be.
