First Steps After a Car Accident
We Can Help You Protect Your Rights Following a Car Crash
When you are injured in a car crash the actions you take can likely be divided into two categories — things you want to do and things you should do. At the Addison, Texas, law firm of Scott H. Palmer, P.C., we can provide the knowledgeable and hands-on guidance you need to ensure your legal rights are protected.
Have you been injured in a motor vehicle accident? Don't jeopardize your rights by dealing directly with insurers. Instead, contact Scott H. Palmer, P.C., at 214-660-5785 or 866-773-9818.
Following a car, truck or motorcycle accident your insurer or the insurer of the other driver will likely call you. Why? Because insurers know that they are exposed to a potentially large liability following an accident. That means they may be legally required to pay you a large sum for injuries and damages.
Their goal, then, will be to settle the case as quickly as possible for the lowest-possible sum, before you realize the true value of your claim. Most often insurers accomplish this goal by making an early and low settlement convenient by offering a quick and easy settlement offer, i.e. "sign here, you'll receive this, and you're all done".
The danger in working directly with insurers that your case may have a true value of, for instance, $500,000 instead of the $50,000 the insurer is offering. The best way to ensure that you receive the award you deserve and are legally entitled to is to work with an experienced lawyer.
An attorney can protect your interests by communicating with insurers for you and by determining and competently pursuing the true value of your claim. For more information about the first steps after a car accident, contact our firm.
