Are you thinking about representing yourself? Please understand that although your case may seem fairly straightforward, the insurance company will usually do everything they can to pay you as little as possible or completely deny your claim altogether. That is why you should not try to handle your claim on your own or even speak to the insurance company. They may take something you say, twist it around, and use it against you. The insurance companies have been known to employ all kinds of tactics to avoid paying people what their claim is really worth. They will try to take advantage of your inexperience in handling personal injury claims to save themselves as much money as possible.
Many times the insurance company representative will be nice to you at first and they may seem very helpful, especially when paying for the repairs to your vehicle or getting you into a rental car. But beware! This is an old ploy to befriend you in preparation for when it is time to negotiate the real value of your case, the personal injury claim. Paying the value of car repairs is usually black and white and so there is not much an insurance company can do to low-ball you on your property damage claim, although we have seen some insurance companies try. Once they have you thinking they are fair and on your side, then that's when the gloves come off, and by that time, you probably will have damaged the value of your case significantly.
Without a lawyer, the insurance company is likely going to offer you far less than what your personal injury claim is really worth, if they offer you anything at all. Think about it...if insurance companies paid people the fair value of their claims, then why are personal injury attorneys so busy? If the insurance companies paid people what their claims are really worth, the truth is...we would be out of business.
Intelligent people hire lawyers to handle their legal matters. Think about how it is going to look when you present your claim without a lawyer. Maybe the insurance company will think you have a bad claim and no lawyer wanted to take it. Or maybe the insurance company will think you are not very wise because you did not hire a lawyer. Either way, they will likely try to take advantage of you. Having a lawyer handle your case will help you free up your time so that you can focus on getting better and spending time with your family. You do not need to be wasting time or stressing out dealing with the insurance company. Let a lawyer deal with them so that you can spend your time and energy in more productive ways.
Whether it is a personal injury case, an automobile accident case, a criminal case, or any legal matter, make the right decision and hire a competent lawyer to represent you. We would like to be your law firm that you can depend on and who you turn to for help.
Not sure if you have a case? Call us for a free, no obligation, confidential consultation with an experienced San Antonio automobile accident or wrongful death attorney. Please understand that statutes of limitation apply to your case. This means that under Texas or Federal law, there is a very limited amount of time in which you can file a lawsuit against the persons or entities that you believe caused your injuries. Different types of cases may have different statutes of limitations. If you miss the applicable statute of limitation (deadline to file a lawsuit) for a certain cause of action, you will be forever barred from pursuing that cause of action against the responsible parties. Call us now before it is too late.
The most critical time is right after your accident. This is when we will have the best chance of locating and preserving evidence, finding and interviewing witnesses, and protecting you against the tactics used by the big insurance companies to lessen the value of your claim.
If you are tired of getting the run-around by the insurance company or the persons or entities that you believe caused your injuries, call us now and let us help you. The insurance companies have lawyers working hard for them so you should have a lawyer working hard for you and looking out for your best interests.
