How To Settle Your Asheville Car Accident Claim: What Not To Do
I speak to many potential clients about how to settle their Asheville auto accident claim. Clients who have been injured in an automobile accident often tell me that their insurance company made a prompt offer to settle their case, shortly after the accident. A recent client was duped into signing a release of his entire claim for $1,100 by an insurance company, even though he will need knee surgery as a result of the accident, which will end up costing him much more in the long run. Here are some tips about what not to do in this situation.
Do not try to represent yourself. The best way to settle a car accident claim is to hire a personal injury attorney who will represent you in your car accident claim. He or she will know what your rights are, how much money is a good settlement, and all the details about your medical bills and vehicle damage.
Don't talk about your accident directly with your insurance company. Once you've said the wrong thing to an insurance company, it can be very difficult to settle your case properly. The safest bet is not to speak to them at all, and let your attorney handle it.
Wait until you've completed all of your involved medical treatment before attempting to settle your claim. The insurance company needs to have all of your records and bills from completed treatments in order to calculate the full value of your claim, and for you to get the most amount of money for your case.
Do not settle a car accident claim without having an attorney look per any settlement release. Before you sign anything, have an attorney look at your paperwork; I have seen insurance companies trick people into signing something that seriously harms their case.
