You may not be on an
even playing field.
You may need personal injury lawyers to protect your
rights! Where a more serious and/or permanent injury has been sustained, an
individual who does not have the training and experience in this area,
is not on an even playing field with the claims representative and/or defense attorneys.
Claim reps have specialized training,
experience, and are closely supervised to operate within strict insurance company
guidelines. Nonetheless, insurance adjusters many times will go to great lengths to keep
an injured accident victim from hiring an attorney to represent them.
The insurance
company is motivated to do only one thing,
settle your claim as cheaply as possible.
Insurance adjusters have been known to "advise"
persons (claimants) that they do not need personal injury lawyers, that an
attorney will only cost them more money that the insurance company would gladly otherwise
pay to them, and that they, the insurance claims person, will take care of the claimant
and see to it that they receive every penny of compensation that they are legally entitled
to. The insurance company is motivated to do only one thing, which is to settle your claim
as cheaply as possible, preferably with you coming away believing that the adverse
insurance company took good care of you.
Cases can be a lot
more complicated
than they may appear on the surface.
In today's environment of much negative publicity about
phony claims, insurance companies and Defendants generally fight cases and do not
make quick, easy settlements, except in very small cases That may not have always been the
case, but that is certainly the current state of affairs. As is also often the case, free
advice from family and friends on a claim is easy to come by. However, as is true with
most things in life, cases can be a lot more complicated than they may appear on the
surface.
For example, it is critical to sort out and identify all
potentially liable parties at an early stage in a case. While the general two year Statute
of Limitations that applies to most claims in Illinois may seem like a long time,
often the only way to develop the information necessary to identify all proper Defendants
in a case is to file suit and utilize Court procedures to obtain information and
documents. Remember, the Defendants are typically not going to cooperate in volunteering
this information.
