MYTH: My Case is Easy Because the Other Insurance Company \u201cAccepted Liability\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n

If you are in a car wreck and you talk to the other driver\u2019s insurance adjuster, they will sometimes tell you that they \u201caccept liability.\u201d People often think this means their case will be easy and that the insurance company won\u2019t dispute their claim. WRONG.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Insurance companies can \u2013 and will \u2013 dispute both the cause of the collision and the extent of your injuries.<\/strong> Even with rear end or head on collisions, insurance companies claim that the collision was not their client\u2019s fault and that YOU were at fault! Yes, this sounds like a frivolous defense, but insurance companies do this in nearly every single case, regardless of what the adjuster tells you.<\/p>\n

Insurance companies also deny that you were injured at all in the collision and\/or they say the injuries were your fault, you didn\u2019t do what you could to recover, or that your injuries existed before the collision! Again, this is standard practice for insurance companies.<\/p>\n

Even if you think your case is a \u201cslam dunk\u201d because the insurance company \u201caccepted liability,\u201d you need an experienced attorney to represent you in order the prove that the other party caused the collision and that you were injured as a result.<\/strong><\/p>\n
