FAQ: San Jose Personal Injury Cases
How much can I expect in a settlement?
If you attempt to settle your case without a San Jose personal injury lawyer, the possibility of the settlement being low is almost certain. Never attempt to negotiate a settlement without strong legal representation that knows and can avoid the tricks and ploys used by insurance companies in order to reduce the value of claims. At The Dunnion Law Firm, our attorneys have extensive experience and a proven reputation for success in fighting for top-dollar settlements. Each case must be completely and thoroughly analyzed and prepared in order to determine the settlement amount to seek for the injured. We offer a free consultation to answer your questions about the value of your case.
How long will it take to get the settlement?
The length of time it takes to conclude a case varies depending on the unique circumstances and facts of each individual matter.Our number one goal on every case is to aggressively negotiate for our clients in order to obtain the maximum settlement possible in the least amount of time. This includes putting intense pressure on the insurance company to settle injury claims only when the true maximum value is being offered.
It is our job, using our vast experience and resources, to manage injury cases in a fashion which moves them deliberately to a settlement value that truly compensates the injury victim for the damages they have suffered. Very severe injury cases may take longer because, due to the complexity of the injuries themselves, it is vital that the injured party recover a settlement that will fully address the extensive medical costs they face and the pain and suffering that they have been forced to endure now and in the future. The dramatic changes that occur in a victims life and the new challenges they must face as a result of the negligence of another must also be fully addressed in any claim for compensation.
I was offered a settlement by the insurance company - should I take it?
It is never advised that you accept a settlement without legal representation. If at a later date you need further medical treatment or your injuries make it too painful to work, you will not have the option to return for further compensation. Your offer is probably ridiculously low, as that is standard practice employed by insurance companies for those without counsel representing them. Insurance companies know that you can't know the the value of your case and they take full advantage of this. Having competent, experienced legal representation ensures that you will be compensated to the maximum extent possible.
