Get the Maximum Settlement After a Car Accident with Injury Lawyer Mike Slocumb

Thousands of people around the country are involved in car accidents every year. And although it takes just a few seconds for an accident to happen, the experience can have long-lasting effects. 

Many car wrecks are fender benders that only result in minor damage to property and can be easily handled by insurance companies. However, in cases where people are hurt in a collision, a personal injury case may be set in motion. Injuries due to car accidents can transform lives, affecting those involved both physically and emotionally, and the expenses can mount up quickly. 

When making a claim for damages with an insurer, problems with stress, confusion, and uncertainty can easily arise.

The Nature of Personal Injury Claims

All settlements in which claimants are awarded money involve the following factors

  • The seriousness of the personal injuries sustained.
  • The type of medical treatment that was received.
  • The extent of the victim’s recovery time.
  • The potential long-term physical and emotional impact of the injuries.
  • The amount of insurance coverage available.
  • The kind of case involved.

Generally speaking, people who experience auto accidents and accept insurance settlements often receive far less than they deserve. Then, if their financial losses continue to mount over time, they are liable for any expenses the settlements failed to cover.

Many Types of Losses are Often Overlooked in Seeking a Settlement

Often, after adding up the medical bills they have already received, car accident victims feel confident they understand the extent of their losses and believe their settlement looks reasonable relative to their bills. 

However, they are probably overlooking many other types of losses for which they could have been compensated, such as the following:

  • Expenses for medical treatment they may require in the future
  • Lost income from being out of work
  • Potential lost income if they need to find new jobs due to their injuries
  • Physical pain and suffering, emotional trauma, and other non-monetary losses

Thus, appropriate damages for injury claims can be hard to compute, and claimants who attempt to do it on their own often ask for far less than they’re entitled to receive. So, it’s always helpful to have an experienced attorney assess the value of your claim.
