Southfield car accident lawyer Lawrence Kajy reveals the tactics used by insurance companies to try and lessen settlement amounts to victims of car accident injuries that include:
- Making immediate phone calls to victims after a car accident.
- Offering what seem like substantial settlement amounts that are also legally binding if accepted.
Kajy goes on to share that by having an experienced car accident lawyer in your corner, you as the victim can leverage the Kajy Law process, experience, and more with insurance companies and settlement negotiations to maximize your compensation.
The Insurance Companies’ Initial Contact Strategy
Insurance companies commonly attempt to contact accident victims immediately following an accident. Their primary tactic is to try and secure an immediate settlement over the phone, often presenting what appears to be an attractive monetary offer to the victim.
Auto Insurance Laws are Complex for Settlements and Have Legal Implications
When insurance companies frequently offer thousands of dollars as immediate settlements it can seem attractive and substantial to an accident victim. However, Kajy emphasizes that these agreements are legally binding and, once accepted, prevent victims from filing any future lawsuits against the insurance company.
Kajy Law Fights for Victim Compensation
To combat quick settlement offers that minimize victim compensation, Kajy Law provides expert legal representation for car accident victims to protect their rights and interest.
There are several benefits of hiring a car accident lawyer from Kajy Law for your case. In fact, data shows that accident victims who hire a lawyer typically receive three times more compensation that if they were to oversee their case independently.
Kajy Law has proven case settlements that demonstrate the value of having a lawyer who can guide you through the legal process, assist with insurance claims, and fight for maximum compensation.
- Having a process for navigating insurance laws and Michigan no-fault laws offers an advantage to the victim.
- A lawyer who specialized in car accidents can obtain higher settlement amounts for the victim with data showing three times more on average.
- Self-representation in car accident cases often equates to receiving lower injury compensation than with legal representation.
Car Accident Injury Compensation Example Breakdown
Having a lawyer who is experienced in car accident injury representation offers a significant advantage to victims because even after attorney’s fees are deducted from the settlement amount, the victim can quite often receive twice or more what they would by representing themselves. For example:
- A car accident victim is offered a $20,000 for their self-handled injury settlement.
- That same case, with expert legal representation, is offered $60,000 for the injury settlement.
- After deducting the standard one-third legal fee ($20,000), the client still nets $40,000 which is double the amount they would have received handling the case themselves.
