The Insurance Company Is Not on Your Side
After an accident, you may wonder: “Do I really need a personal injury lawyer, or can I handle this on my own?” Insurance adjusters may even encourage you to settle without legal help. But here’s the truth:
Their job is to protect profits—not you.
Why Representation Matters
Hiring a skilled attorney increases your chances of:
-
Receiving higher compensation
-
Avoiding mistakes or missed deadlines
-
Identifying all liable parties
-
Navigating complex paperwork
What You Risk Without a Lawyer
Without legal counsel, many injury victims:
-
Accept lowball offers
-
Miss out on non-economic damages(like pain and suffering)
-
Fail to consider future costs(like ongoing therapy or lost wages)
-
Get overwhelmed by medical liens or legal jargon
