Your Claim: A War that Can Be Won


How to Win Your Case

Many may think that just because you were injured in an accident, you are entitled to money in your claim, but this is not the case. Not only must you have been injured, but it had to have been caused by carelessness or negligence. This must be a condition, you must sue the right person, and you must do it in the right time frame.

Knowing whether you need an attorney

A key piece of knowledge in handling an accident claim case is knowing in which circumstance you will need an attorney. While not all cases dictate that lawyers are necessary, many do. Cases with little property damage and minor injuries, for example, are not even accepted by our firm. In these cases, the money obtained from the small claims will not match the fees charged for our services, and so we will be wasting your money. This would be unfair to any client. However, in this case, we do offer consulting services for a small fee for those wishing to pursue the claims case themselves. Your decision, combined with our services, can save you thousands and win your case.

Before you consider your ability to hire an attorney, know that insurance companies tend to hand higher payments to claims that are represented by an attorney.

A 1999 insurance study proved this fact. The non-profit Insurance Research Council conducted the study on leading casualty and property insurance companies across the entire United States. The findings were startling: those who enlisted the services of an attorney in accident claim proceedings received payments of up to 3.5 times more than those who represented themselves.
