Whether it be an auto accident, a dog bite, or a slip and fall, injuries that are caused by others are called personal injuries. When someone is injured because of the neglect or direct actions of another person or company, the injured victim has the right to pursue them for compensation. Many personal injuries require a victim to attempt to settle with an insurance company. To avoid hassles in the process, it behooves a victim to seek legal counsel from a personal injury lawyer in Tucson, AZ.
Dealing with an insurance company can be stressful for most victims. Although one would like to think the insurance company is there to provide for the needs of the victim, the insurance adjuster is really attempting to settle for as little as possible so they can protect their client and company. No victim should have to fight with the insurance company alone when a lawyer can help.
Lawyers can help with the following:
* The lawyer will review the measurable damages and tally the amount the claim is worth so they can make sure they fight for a fair amount for their client.
* The lawyer will negotiate with the insurance company or the individual directly to ensure a fair settlement is offered.
* If negotiations are not working out, the lawyer may pursue mediation meetings in an attempt to settle the claim without court.
* If court becomes unavoidable, the lawyer will prepare for the pursuit and will work to ensure the case ends as favorably as possible.
While most personal injury cases are settled outside of court, this is not always a favorable option. When the insurance company is refusing to be fair, the lawyer sometimes has no choice but to file a complaint in court. Here, the judge and jury will be the ones to make the final decision.
If you have been seriously injured because of someone else, it behooves you to contact a personal injury lawyer in Tucson, AZ. The lawyers at Price and Price Law Office will be happy to meet with you and go over your legal options, to help you understand how they can help.
