What Makes Different Car Accident Cases So Complicated?

You might think you don’t even need a lawyer if another driver clearly caused your accident. The reality is many different types of accidents turn out to be far more complicated than many people expect. Some of the reasons why include:

• The driver who caused your collision denies doing anything wrong
• The insurance company says the forces of the collision were not enough to cause bodily injury
• The insurance company says your medical providers charged in excess of  normal billing on your medical bills
• The driver who caused your crash blames you for causing accident
• The other driver’s insurance company denies or diminishes your accident claim
• The other driver’s insurance coverage is insufficient to pay your damages
• The insurance company ignores valid parts of your claim, like wage loss or future medical needs

Why Do I Need a Lawyer If I Was Involved in a Car Accident?

The other driver’s insurance company will work hard to reduce or deny your claim. They know that if they can get to you quickly, before you know the full extent of your damage, they might be able to settle your case for  pennies on the dollar.  They know if you get an attorney, they will end up paying much more.

That’s why we want to represent you. Not only will we help you get more money, but our job is about holding drivers and corporations responsible for their actions. If someone caused your accident, you deserve to be compensated. As your attorney, we will do everything we can to demand the money you deserve.
