Sacramento Insurance Companies and Accident Claims in California
Insurance companies always play a major role after a motorcycle accident, as they are typically who your attorney will need to deal with in order to secure a financial settlement that will pay for your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages and more, which resulted from injuries you sustained in the accident.
Although you can file a claim and deal with the insurance company personally, unfortunately, not all insurance companies in California exercise honest and ethical standards in evaluating and paying out insurance claims for motorcycle accidents. Having a Sacramento motorcycle accident lawyer from our firm at your side will help ensure that the compensation amount you receive is fair. They may try to delay or deny payment of your claim, or may offer you a settlement, which is far below what your claim is worth.
A Sacramento motorcycle accident attorney can represent you by filing your claim and conducting all communication with any insurance companies involved after your motorcycle accident. By having an attorney represent you, you can avoid unintentionally making incriminating statements. Your attorney can also put the appropriate pressure on the insurance company to pay your valid claim, even when they try to avoid this.
Don't Accept Just Any Settlement from the Motorcycle Insurance Company
After a motorcycle accident, it is important that you do not talk to the other driver's insurance company. The insurance adjuster may ask you specific questions intended to lead you into making a statement, which will sound as though you are admitting liability in the accident, effectively hurting your chances of getting a maximum settlement. Instead, contact a lawyer at our firm for a free case evaluation. If we take on your case, we will deal with the insurance company in order to give you the greatest opportunity of getting your claim amount paid in full - without having to go to civil court.
