Our lawyers use their experience, legal knowledge, compassion,
and passion for justice to fight for the maximum possible
car accident settlements on behalf of our clients.
If you have been seriously injured in a car accident, a car
accident settlement often involves intense negotiations between
you and the insurance company covering your claim. Because
the insurance company has an experienced team of attorneys
on staff to protect the company’s interests, you deserve to
have your own car
accident lawyer to protect you. Luckily, Kennedy Law Group’s
lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay
nothing until there is a financial recovery in your case.
Before a car accident settlement can be reached, you must
calculate the losses suffered in the accident. An experienced
lawyer is invaluable in this process because he or she will
suggest many losses you may have never considered. In addition
to medical expenses, for example, your claim also may include
lost wages, an estimate of future medical care costs, and
lost ability to work.
Once you have reached what you believe to be a fair settlement
amount, it’s time to demand that amount from the insurance
company. The amount you are allowed to demand, however, will
be restricted by insurance policy limits. For instance, if
the insurance policy covering your claim has a limit of $250,000,
that is the maximum amount you can demand, even if your losses
are $300,000 or more.
After you and your personal
injury attorney demand a specific dollar amount from the
insurance company, the insurance company will give you a counteroffer.
Do not be surprised if the insurance company offers you $5,000
on a $100,000 claim, as it is standard procedure for an insurance
company to offer as little as possible on any claim, and then
negotiate from that point.
If your lawyer and the insurance company cannot reach a _settlement,
you may decide to take your case to trial. At this point,
a trial lawyer is highly advisable. That’s why it is important
to seek out the services of an experienced trial lawyer from
the very beginning, rather than wait until you want to go
to trial and then switch lawyers in the middle of your case.
The personal injury trial lawyers at Kennedy Law Group have
experience in negotiating a wide variety of _accident settlements.
Whether you need a motorcycle
attorney in St Petersburg or a semi truck accident lawyer
in Kissimmee, our law firm can assist you from the day of
your accident to your settlement to trial, if necessary.
