Doing it Yourself can sometimes save you time and money. But NOT when it comes to yourCar Accident Claim!

You could lose out on financial compensation and future care if you handle your claim yourself.

When DIY Doesn't Pay Off

A do-it-yourself approach could be a good call in many situations. Not only could it save you money, but also the time and hassle of getting other parties involved. However, just like how a DIY approach could benefit you and your family, it also has the potential to go wrong. For example, filing an insurance claim alone after an accident is not in your best interest.

Despite their claims to be on your side, insurance companies only look out for themselves and put profits over their policyholders. Unfortunately, many claimants learn this the hard way. Our team at Daggett Shuler cares about your safety and well-being, so we’re determined to stand up for you when your insurance company lets you down. Our reputable attorneys work together to provide you with the highest quality legal guidance and representation standards to get you back on your feet. Speak with us for free today. We don’t get paid until you do.

We’ll Take on The Insurance Company, So You Don’t Have To

Car accidents can impact every aspect of your life in an instant. It can be life-altering whether you suffer injuries, property damage, or both. Unfortunately, communicating with your insurance company alone can only make matters worse. A DIY approach to an insurance claim could risk your chances of receiving the fair and full compensation you need to move forward.

What’s At Stake if I File My Own Claim?

We know how badly you want to put your car accident behind you as soon as possible. However, while filing your own insurance claim for your accident may seem convenient at the moment, it will not be in the long run. Unfortunately, filing your insurance claim on your own can result in negative consequences for you and your family. This can include:

  • Missing out on the amount of money you’re owed. Your insurance company may lowball you on a settlement and rush you into accepting a settlement that is too low. Adjusters may try to pressure you to turn your claim against you, in order to pay you as little as possible.
  • Difficulty receiving the appropriate medical care. You may not receive a settlement that covers the proper treatment needed for your injuries. This could negatively affect the care you’re able to receive. You could also have medical issues from the accident that arise later that may not be covered.
  • Lost wages and income. Your ability to return to work may be delayed, and you may have a tough time making ends meet.

When you pursue a car accident claim without a skilled attorney, you could lose even more time and money than you have already from your accident. Don’t let insurance companies re-victimize you during this difficult time. Speak with the car accident lawyers at Daggett Shuler for free today. We are here to protect and defend your rights and livelihood and will never charge a fee unless we win.

WHY YOU NEED A CAR ACCIDENT ATTORNEY

Insurance companies say they’re on your side, but their actions speak louder than words. Instead of assisting you, insurance adjusters are trained to work against you, minimizing your claim to keep more money in their pockets. A car accident attorney is well-versed in all of the tactics insurance companies use and will ensure that you receive the full scope of compensation for your experience.

Don’t be re-victimized by an insurance company after an accident. A knowledgeable, experienced car accident lawyer will take on the insurance company, handle everything on your behalf, and make the claim process as stress-free as possible. The result: the best possible outcome and maximum compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What to do immediately following an accident

  • Check yourself and any passengers for injuries. Remember that some injuries are not immediately visible and could be very serious.
  • Call 911. The operator will send the police and first responders right away. The police will file a report, and emergency workers will attend to any injuries.
  • Get important information. The police can help you obtain information you will need for your claim, including the other driver’s name and insurance information.
  • Gather evidence. If possible, take photos of the car damages, location, and traffic signals. Investigate whether video surveillance may exist.

What NOT to do after an accident

  • Don’t panic. While a car accident can be a scary event, try to keep a level head so you can address any immediate issues.
  • Don’t admit fault. Even if you were the cause of the accident, do not admit to being at-fault. Any statements you make at the scene may be used against you by the insurance company.
  • Don’t speak with an insurance adjuster. You are not obligated to discuss the claim with an insurance adjusted or sign medical authorizations right away. If they call, let them know that they can discuss the claim with your attorney. Your lawyer will handle the insurance company on your behalf.
  • Don’t post on social media. Anything you post may affect the outcome of your claim. It’s best to go silent on social media accounts while your claim is in progress.
