How a San Bernardino Personal Injury Attorney Can Help
If you or a loved one has suffered a preventable injury due to negligence, it is essential to obtain experienced representation as soon as possible. From car accidents to construction disasters, serious injury claims are often overwhelming to pursue. There is a significant amount of paperwork, the process can be time-consuming and lengthy, and one miss-step can lead to your claim being denied completely. Frequently, injury victims are unable to work. In some cases, it may take weeks or months before the severity of the injuries can be assessed.
However, a San Bernardino personal injury lawyer can fight for your rights and pursue your best interests by:
- Negotiating with insurance companies. It is important to remember that insurance companies are a business. Every payout affects their profit. When an insurance adjuster calls, they may pressure you into an immediate settlement. If a claimant does not settle upfront and does not retain counsel, insurance companies can drag out claims while bills and other expenses add pressure for a victim to agree to a much lower settlement.
- Obtaining higher settlements. The Insurance Research Council found that injury victims of automotive-related accidents caused by a driver, manufacturer, or government negligence receive 3.5 times the settlement with an attorney than those without representation.
- Expertly handling complex cases. Some personal injury claims can be difficult to prove or face other complications. Medical malpractice, toxic exposure, and premises liability usually require an attorney with in-depth knowledge and resources.
- Expediting your case. Personal injury claims are frequently tied up in an immense amount of paperwork, insurance red tape, medical expert and witness statements, and other delays. If you or a loved one has been injured and cannot wait months for a settlement, a San Bernardino personal injury lawyer can stay on top of your case to help you receive the compensation you deserve as quickly as possible.
- Connecting injury victims to the best medical care. Experienced personal injury attorneys often have medical experts and other medical resources to help you receive the care, diagnosis, and treatment you need. In many cases, not having representation can leave you vulnerable to inferior care. Your insurance company may pressure you to use the medical experts they recommend. Since insurance companies hold their bottom line above your well-being, the standard of care you receive may be less than you deserve.
- Handling the legwork and preventing errors. In many cases, injury victims underestimate the amount of work needed to secure compensation. For those who are seriously hurt, time spent gathering and filling out essential paperwork, negotiating with insurance adjusters, and chasing medical documents is time spent away from healing. Also, small mistakes can be used to deny your claim. Insurance companies are constantly looking for a way to deny or reduce any payouts. Insurance adjusters are trained negotiators who usually insist all correspondence is recorded. An injury victim may accidentally say something that can hurt their claim. Or, if a claimant is preparing their own paperwork, missing a deadline by a day can significantly damage your case.
