The aftermath of an auto accident can be frustrating, painful, and overwhelming. On top of your injuries and the stress over being out of work, you must negotiate with an insurance adjuster who is refusing to offer a fair settlement. That’s where the car accident lawyers at the Hines Law Firm come in. Our legal team can guide you through each step of the claims process and ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
During this stressful time, our legal team can help by:

Shortly after an accident, the other driver’s insurance company may try to contact you and ask to record your statement. During this time, they may seem helpful and friendly, but their goal is to get you to admit fault or say something that could harm your claim. They may also offer a settlement at this time, but these initial settlements are never enough to cover the cost of your economic and non-economic damages. These offers are also usually made before an insurance adjuster even knows the extent of your injuries. The insurance adjuster may try to pressure you into accepting their offer, claiming it’s the only offer you’re going to get. Instead of dealing with an aggressive claims adjuster, contact a car accident attorney at the Hines Law Firm as soon as possible.
A car accident attorney can handle all communication with the insurance adjuster, including settlement negotiations. While we negotiate with the insurance company, you can focus on your recovery.

If the insurance company refuses to make a fair settlement offer, your car accident attorney can file a lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court. As they prepare for trial, your attorney will continue to negotiate with the insurance company. Fortunately, most car accident cases are settled out of court.
We’re Committed to Your Success
The economic and non-economic damages you’re entitled to will depend on the circumstances surrounding your case, such as the extent of your injuries, how much time you missed at work, and how the accident has affected your life.

Make it to every doctor’s appointment and follow your doctor’s treatment instructions carefully. Your doctor may set restrictions, such as not lifting anything heavier than ten pounds and not returning to work.
Avoid posting about your accident on social media. Insurance companies or defense attorneys may be monitoring your social media accounts
Document anything you recall from the accident, such as what the other driver did and said.
Obtain a copy of the accident report. If you are unable to obtain a copy of the police report, your attorney can get a copy for you.
