Unfair Insurance Companies

Retain a St. Louis Car Accident Lawyer to File an Injury Claim

Insurance company claims adjusters are highly trained.  Adjusters are compensated according to the money (or lack thereof) that is paid to injury victims.  This creates a serious problem right from the start.  If you buy car insurance to protect you in the event of a serious car accident, shouldn't the insurance company fairly pay a claim when an accident takes place and people are hurt?  The right answer is "yes."  However, what often happens is that the victim is either grossly undercompensated or hires a lawyer and is eventually fairly compensated. 

Insurance companies that fail to pay fair compensation to injury victims are committing "bad faith" and exposing their own policyholder to personal financial exposure.  For example, if a driver with Missouri minimum car insurance limits of $25,000 rear-ends another vehicle and causes serious personal injuries, then the insurance company of the negligent driver should pay its $25,000 "policy limits" if the injury victim is seriously hurt.  If that insurance company fails to pay and the victim files a personal injury claim for compensation, a jury may likely award the victim more than $25,000.  If a verdict for over $25,000 is rendered, the negligent driver may have to come up with the money himself.  In this situation, the defendant may have bad faith claim against his or her own car insurance company for bad faith.

Always retain a St. Louis car accident lawyer to file an injury claim on your behalf.  Never deal with insurance company claims adjusters.  Don't even talk to them.  Don't give a recorded statement or provide any information whatsoever.  Call a St. Louis injury lawyer at (314) 448-0934 immediately and discuss your right to compensation.  Dealing with claims adjusters without a lawyer is a serious gamble.  A gamble without a lawyer on your side very rarely pays off.  On average, injury victims obtain 5X the amount of compensation when they retain a lawyer to file an injury claim, even after paying attorneys fees.
