Car Accidents in California
Each year, thousands of Californians suffer injuries in car crashes across the state. From crowded freeways to busy city intersections, California roads can be unpredictable. Statistics show that California sees more than 3,600 traffic-related deaths annually and hundreds of thousands of injury accidents. Coastal communities such as Hermosa Beach are not immune to these events. After a crash, it’s important to understand the challenges victims often face. Below is information on one of those key issues:
- Delayed Responses: Insurers may take an extended time to process your claim, hoping the pressure of bills or missed work pushes you to accept a smaller settlement.
- Lowball Settlement Offers: Insurance companies often offer settlements that are far below the actual cost of medical treatment, lost wages, and emotional impact. These initial offers may not even cover ongoing care.
- Disputing Liability: Some insurance adjusters may attempt to place partial or full blame on the injured party to reduce the payout or deny the claim entirely.
- Surveillance and Social Media Monitoring: In some cases, insurers might monitor your public activity to argue that your injuries are less severe than reported.
- Misleading Communication: Insurance agents may use friendly or reassuring language to gain your trust while encouraging decisions that are not in your best interest.
If you’ve been hurt in a collision, it’s important to contact a car accident attorney as soon as possible. Having a lawyer in your corner can help ensure fair treatment and protect you from unfair insurance practices. An attorney will advocate for your medical and financial needs so that your recovery is the priority.
