Car accidents are a traumatic and overwhelming experience. No matter the circumstances of the accident, your personal health should always be your top priority. Throw in savvy insurance representatives, disagreements over fault, and uncertainty of which course of action is best, and situations become tricky in a hurry. Before long, the bills start piling up, and damages are still left unresolved.
One mistake can cause an accident that changes your life forever. After an accident, whether it’s on the road or while you’re at work, you will need time to focus on your recovery, which often means medical appointments and the bills that follow.
Car accidents are stressful and traumatic events. However, it is imperative to stay calm and take the necessary steps after the accident to make it easier to receive the compensation you deserve.
When you file an insurance claim, you expect the insurance company to act in good faith and handle your claim fairly. However, it is not uncommon for insurance companies to use bad faith tactics when responding to, investigating, and handling claims.
Being injured as the result of a car accident can be a traumatizing experience. Not only do you have to take care of your emotional and physical needs, but you also have to deal with claims adjusters who’ll try to get you to settle for less than you deserve.
Being involved in a motor vehicle accident can be stressful, even overwhelming. On top of all the fear that you’re feeling in the aftermath of the crash, you may receive a phone call from an insurance adjuster asking you about the accident and your injuries.
Even if you aren’t sure you are injured, there are many reasons you should seek medical treatment after a car accident. Call The Law Office of Steve Brannan.
If you’ve been injured on the job, you’ve likely been receiving workers’ compensation. You may not be aware of the option of a third-party claim. Because workers’ compensation payouts tend to be low (in 2020, the state of California paid out only $1.56 per $100 of payroll), your compensation likely won’t cover all the costs associated with your injury, leaving you to pick up the balance.
