What Should I Do if an Insurance Company Offers Me a Settlement for My Injuries?

What should you do if an insurance company offers you a settlement for your injuries? Don’t sign anything. That first offer is always a lowball. I’ve never seen an insurance company lead with their best offer. They’re hoping you’re desperate and you need quick money. Before you accept anything, you need to know the full extent of your injuries, which might not be apparent for weeks or months, depending on how you recover. Once you sign, you can’t go back for more money, even if you need surgery later. Get all of your medical treatment first, understand the long-term prognosis, then evaluate any offer.

It’s important to have an attorney review it. We can usually get significantly more than the initial offer. If they’re pursuing you to settle quickly, that should be a red flag to know that the case is worth more. Contact DiBella Law at 855 DiBella for your free consultation today.
