What Are Auto Insurance Lawyers?

If you or someone you know experiences a car accident and injury, you may be wondering how you can receive compensation, especially is the other party is responsible. Let’s help you understand the best ways to pursue compensation so you can recover better, both financially and physically. In most cases, the other party’s insurance company will be the one dealing with your expenses, particularly your medical bills. We are aware, though, that there are times when settlements won’t be completely helpful. The other party’s insurance company may not always try to provide fair compensation. This is why having an attorney work with you is ideal. You’ll better guarantee your chances at receiving the settlement you deserve. It’s critical that you work through your car accident claim effectively. You want to walk away knowing your medical bills are being paid. You do not want to wind up paying out of your own pocket for property damage or insurance coverage. Serious car accidents can take a lot out of a person. Rest assured - Our law firm, and the experienced attorney assigned to your car accident claims, will handle your case with the utmost care. We will always keep you and your safety in mind. Our auto accident attorney will do their best to help you and represent our firm’s belief that you are our priority. Please note that if you present car insurance claims to us as but have uninsured motorist coverage, our lawyers will need to review your car accident case and claims and consider representation, as any other personal injury attorney would.

What Happens if the Insurance Company Does Not Cooperate?

If the other party’s insurance company does not respond to settlement agreements, or if they attempt to lowball you for an unfair amount, suing may be the next option. This would mean filing a lawsuit against the insurance company to receive compensation that will be considered fair. It is true that battles in court can take time, but when it comes to car accidents this isn’t as common. Most of the time lawsuits that are centered around a car accident results in some kind of settlement before entering the trial stage, meaning you’ll no longer need to worry. Auto insurance companies would rather settle with you than fight in court. They would want to conclude their case with you as soon as they can. Know that if you plan on suint, you will likely receive a settlement prior to needing to court. Problems are more likely to arise when you do not have an expert on your side. This is why a car accident lawyer is vital to your car accident claim. They will be able to help you so much more than if you go at this alone. The goal is to reach common ground that makes the process fast and allows you a fair settlement. Insurance companies will often try to get you to sign a lower offer first, but you must not settle immediately. Having a good car accident lawyer on your side makes refusing initial, low offers much simpler. They know what the other driver's insurance company is doing, and they will be able to help you navigate through those tactics so you can receive the compensation you deserve. Remember, once you have signed a waiver accepting an offer, you no longer have any right to receive additional compensation. You need to get things done correctly the first time. There are no second chances.

The Process

Consider, also, that in many auto accident claims, there is an at-fault driver involved. As a law firm, it is our job to tell the truth. If a car accident occurs and it was not your fault, we will fight to help you win your case. If the other party was drunk driving, there is no reason your medical treatment or insurance settlement won’t be received in full. If a car crash is more complicated or complex, it can be difficult to understand who will owe what in the claims process. In these cases, most car accident lawyers may need to visit small claims court. No personal injury lawyer wants to visit court. This is why it's critical that you're honest in car accident cases. This means letting us see the police report, showing us any medical records and medical bills, speaking to the accident victims, alerting us to whether you had underinsured motorist coverage or used liability insurance, and even ensuring we get in touch with the at-fault driver. All of these things will help car accident lawyers, support any personal injury claim, and create a strong case against auto-insurance companies.

"I truly can’t say thank you enough to Ashley and her team. This was unfortunately the 2nd time I had to reach out to Rawlins Law for their services after being rear ended again. Fortunately though, I knew exactly who to call as soon as it happened. I was confident in knowing that I would be provided the best fight and settlement with Car Crash Ash on my side! Ashely is a thorough and steadfast attorney. The team was great and Amy was communicative and professional in aiding us through the process. My family and I are so grateful for Rawlins Law! Thank you Ashley, Amy and team for fighting for us so resolutely! We will recommend it to you time and time again!"

Becky Rivera

"After being involved in my first accident, I had no idea what to do or who to call. Thankfully a friend of mine recommended Car Crash Ash & they helped me out tremendously. I absolutely appreciate Belen for all she has done and kept in contact with me during the entire process. Thank you! I will recommend this place to everyone."

Mike Kelley

"I wish I could give this review 10 stars! In August of 2022 I got rear ended on the freeway. My car was totaled and I ended up in the ER with severe neck pain. A friend recommended I call the Rawlins Law Firm. He raved about the service and said I would be in good hands. HE WAS RIGHT! Ashley and the team were kind, sympathetic, got me the right medical treatment and communicated with me every step of the way. But, make no mistake here. Ashley is a bit down and never let go of the tenacious bulldog when it comes to dealing with insurance companies. She has a very intimate knowledge of how insurance companies work and she doesn't take no for an answer. After all was said and done she got all the medical bills paid and got me a very large lump sum settlement. If you're ready for this, take my word for it. Car crash Ash is the real deal!"
