Benefit Number One: It protects you against the Insurance Company
If you choose to hire an attorney for personal injuries to manage your claim for injury and focus on recovering instead of having to deal with an insurance company or claims adjuster.
Certain insurance adjusters press accident victims to sign statements and medical releases that are unintentionally in the interests of the victim. Adjusters can also press the victim of an accident to settle a case before the victim is aware of the extent of their injuries and the damages.
An attorney can stop the insurance company from putting excessive pressure on victims of accidents.
