Our compassionate Fresno attorneys can meet with you and your family members to assess the full impact that the automobile wreck has had on your life. This prepares us to fight for the damages award or settlement that you and your family need to help you improve your future.
It is best to speak to one of our Fresno lawyers before accepting a car crash settlement. This is because, if at a later date, you need further medical treatment, or your injuries keep you from work, you will not have the option to seek additional compensation.
It is likely that any initial offer from the insurance company is not what you truly deserve. Insurers take advantage of unrepresented individuals who are not aware of the true value of their case. Large insurance companies often aim to resolve cases quickly and minimize settlement amounts to protect their profits. Their interests do not align with yours. People who hire lawyers are significantly more likely to obtain a larger settlement. With our knowledgeable, experienced attorneys, you can be confident that we will pursue the full compensation you are entitled to after a motor vehicle accident.
– Get the medical care you need.
– Talk to your doctor about all your symptoms.
– Don’t talk to insurance companies about your injuries. Tell them you are unsure and looking to discuss this with a lawyer.
That’s a difficult question, and ultimately depends on assessing the unique conditions of your claim, which cannot be done by an automated calculator. According to the All-Industry Research Advisory Council (ARAC), a typical personal injury case without an attorney settles for $3,262, while a case with an attorney will re-coup $11,939 – that’s over 3.5 times more money in your pocket.

If you accept the settlement and you later need further medical treatment or are unable to work due to your injuries, your settlement and waiver agreement can prevent you from getting additional compensation.

Until then, you must make payment on medical costs associated with your accident or, have your health insurance pay them while your case is underway. It’s important to make sure that all of your medical providers bill your health insurance.

You may also need to arrange to have your vehicle evaluated by the at-fault driver’s insurance. At that time, you can also confirm coverage for your rental car. The insurance adjusters will assess the property damage and provide a settlement amount so repairs can be made. Sometimes, they may even refer you to a repair shop so you can get estimates to repair the damage.
