Personal Injury Claims
The liability insurance that drivers carry is not just meant to cover accidental harm caused to those outside of the vehicle. A driver is responsible for the safety of those in their vehicle as well. While making a personal injury claim against someone who knew the victim may prove emotionally challenging, the financial burdens that follow a vehicular accident can be difficult to bear.
A good personal injury attorney can help victims seek proper compensation by navigating these tricky issues, as well as negotiating on the victim’s behalf with insurance companies, who routinely work to minimize the payout of any claim they cannot deny.
