Wide-open roads and generous speed limits make Texas a driver’s paradise, but they also contribute to the number and severity of automobile accidents in our state. In any given year, an excess of a quarter million Texans will be involved in an automobile accident. The fortunate ones will walk away unscathed and the less fortunate will suffer injuries or even death.
Over the years, I have fought for thousands of people who have been injured in automobile accidents. I am glad to report that many adjusters will fairly evaluate a claim once the attorney educates them with regard to the accident and the resulting injuries. The conduct of these adjusters is the exception.
For the most part, insurance companies look out for their own interest not yours. You see insurance companies are a “for profit” business that makes money when they underpay claims. I have met with people who have been confused or deceived by adjusters in their initial statement, and thereby eliminating any possibility of a recovery. Others have been told by adjusters that they do not have a claim when this is simply not true. Another ploy is to have the insurance company tell the injured person that they are going to find a doctor for them, then string them out for months diminishing the value of their case. Don’t let this happen to you. Hire an experienced lawyer; my office is ready to help.
