If you have
been injured in an auto accident, the last thing you should be
worried about is
dealing
with
insurance
companies.
Our office works on a “contingency” fee basis. That
means we only make a fee if we get a recovery for you. If you
don’t receive money, we don’t receive money, and you
owe us nothing for our legal services or expenses. We will thoroughly
investigate any facts showing that the other party is at fault
for your injuries, getting witness statements and photos, if possible.
We will contact any and all relevant insurance companies, monitor
your medical treatment, and gather your accident-related medical
records and bills.
While you are going through medical treatment, if any of your outstanding
medical bills are going into collection, we will send the medical
providers letters asking them to hold off on collection until after
the claim
is resolved. This step helps to preserve your credit rating and
stops bill collectors from harassing you.
After you are done with treatment, we will gather all records,
reports, and bills and draft a “demand letter” setting
forth the facts and summarizing the evidence of your case, submit
it to the other party’s insurance company along with a deadline
for the insurer to respond, and negotiate with the at-fault insurer
to settle the claim short of filing suit, if possible.
If we are unable to resolve the claim to your satisfaction, we
will file a lawsuit against all at-fault parties, and will vigorously
pursue the suit until it is resolved through settlement, mediation,
or trial.
If and when the suit is resolved in your favor, we will deduct
our
fees and expenses, negotiate to reduce your outstanding medical
bills in order to increase the net amount of your settlement
or award,
and help you to pay any outstanding medical bills. The net amount
you receive
is tax-free.
