Many people may think that they don’t need a personal injury attorney after an accident. Whether they feel like the accident was minor, they don’t want to cause any trouble, or they don’t trust the process. But our personal injury attorneys don’t sue others for loads of money or take on any case for a quick buck.
At Flickinger Boulton Robson Weeks, our attorneys work hard every day to ensure you are compensated fairly by your insurance; that you recover wholly, both physically and financially; and that you have someone on your side if things start to go badly.
Let’s discuss these reasons that many people might not seek out an attorney, and why you still should.
A Minor Accident Doesn’t Need An Attorney
Often, there are car accidents that do not cause too much damage. Those involved in these accidents might feel like they need any assistance with their claim and recovery. And while there are some claims and cases and can easily be taken care of, it can be beneficial to have an attorney by your side. First, there can be some cases where you and the other driver seemed on the same page of who was at fault. But as the other driver is talking with their insurance, they can change their story to be in their favor, meaning you would have to pay more. If you have an attorney on your side to help fight your claim and prove you were not at fault, then you won’t have to pay those unnecessary costs.
Also, while it feels like your insurance should always be on your side, they often are trying to pay as little as possible. Again, with an attorney they can advocate for your case and Provo what compensation you deserve. These minor accidents can end up costing you more without that help on your side.
You Don’t Want To Cause Problems With the Other Driver
Most everyone wants to be seen as kind and nice and they don’t want to cause any trouble when dealing with others. This is especially true after car accidents. Many people want to get the whole process over with as quickly and simply as possible. They also don’t want to cause a financial strain on the other driver. When you have a case with a personal injury attorney, they are not directly suing the defendant. Instead, they are working with insurance companies and those settlements. If you are in an accident with someone without insurance, usually your attorney will just turn to your insurance for the settlement. When you are doing these sorts of claims, it does not cause financial strain on the other driver. Getting a personal injury attorney is purely to support you throughout this process, and most cases do not do damage or cause trouble to the other driver.
