The Benefits of Retaining a Personal Injury Lawyer

The communications you share with your attorney are privileged, and this means you have the freedom to communicate things that may harm your case to your attorney. Your lawyer should comprehensively understand the facts associated with your case. A personal injury lawyer can also identify Allstate's tactics to delay processing your claim. Having an attorney on your side will enable you to learn more about the information Allstate possesses regarding your accident claim.

We Prepare Before Filing Your Claim

Our attorneys handle your claim before submitting it to Allstate.

Actuarial charts and statistical data allow the insurance company to make complex decisions in a short amount of time.

Do not accept any settlement offer before you consult with a personal injury attorney. Our knowledge and experience will prevent you from missing out on the monetary compensation you deserve. It can be difficult to deal with insurance companies' tactics to pay low settlements to individuals seeking compensation for their injuries. A knowledgeable personal injury attorney can provide guidance to reject inadequate settlement offers. The client is the only party who can accept or reject a settlement offer. You do not have to agree with your attorney if you want to reject a settlement offer and provide a counteroffer to the insurance company.

The Types of Damages Accidents May Seek in Personal Injury Cases

If you suffered personal injuries and are seeking financial compensation, then you need to provide the insurance company with a computation of damages. Accident victims may seek special damages, general damages, and punitive damages. Special damages like medical and vehicle repair bills are typically associated with documentary evidence. Determining the total value of your special damages is relatively straightforward. General damages are less quantifiable, and speaking to an attorney who can assist in assessing the potential value of your general damages is essential. Common examples of general damages include pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium. These are particular to the individual who suffered the harm and are more abstract than special damages. Gaining more insight into personal injury law will provide a clearer understanding of general damages. Punitive damages punish the defendant for committing egregious conduct harmful to society. Courts typically award punitive damages when a defendant engages in reckless behavior, displaying malicious conduct rather than negligence. Additionally, punitive damages aim to deter the defendant from repeating the same conduct in the future. Working with a personal injury lawyer is the best way to assess how much compensation you may seek for your injuries. Although it can seem frustrating and complex initially, calculating the total damages amount is one of the most important aspects of any personal injury case. Handling a powerful insurance company like Allstate means being ready to negotiate with defense attorneys who vigorously represent their clients.
