Dealing With The Insurance Adjuster

View All

Before you sign any papers or even talk with the insurance adjuster, you need to get a copy of the book, Five Deadly Sins that Can Wreck Your Injury Claim. The book has information you need to know about the insurance adjuster and your accident claim.

Don't be fooled. You are at war with the insurance company.


It shouldn't be that hard. You should be able to work with the insurance adjuster to settle your Virginia car accident claim. After all, it's pretty straightforward - the other driver hit you, you were injured and are looking at a mountain of medical bills. However, as soon as you were hurt in that accident you stepped into a war zone with the insurance company. The good news is that it is a war that can be won.

Don't let the insurance company's television commercials and radio ads confuse you.


The insurance company is not on your side and is in the business of making money. Every time the insurer pays on a claim, it is money taken away from their bottom line. The insurance adjuster is therefore going to do what it takes to minimize your claim.


Insurance adjusters are skilled at what they do and they will try to find ways to either deny or lower the value of your claim. You may have been asked to give a recorded statement or to simply sign papers. What you didn't know was that the insurance adjuster was hoping that you would do or say something that would justify a low settlement offer.


If the insurance company has offered you a "low-ball" settlement, you can try to negotiate on your own, but you probably won't get very far.


Why the insurance adjuster hopes you won't hire a Virginia car accident lawyer.


We have heard countless stories of accident victims who were told by the adjuster that they don't need to hire an attorney. These "helpful" insurance adjusters often allude that Virginia car accident lawyers will take a chunk of their settlement and they are better off working directly with the insurance company.


Here's the truth - research has shown that people who were represented by lawyers following an accident received, on average, higher settlements than those who were not represented. The insurance adjuster knows that once you have an accident attorney on your side, you are probably going to end up with a higher settlement.


We're selective on the cases we will take.


Our law firm is selective on the types of cases we will represent. If we agree to take your case, rest assured that you will be represented by a firm that has the experience, resources and knowledge to help you with your claim.
