Car Accidents in California
Each year, California sees hundreds of thousands of collisions that cause injury. Data shows that in urban areas like Lynwood, intersections are common hotspots for crashes due to increased traffic and driver error. From 2022 to 2023, accident-related injuries rose slightly statewide, raising concerns over road safety in busy communities.
When dealing with accidents, there are many things to be aware of. One of the most critical involves how insurance companies handle your claim. Here’s what you need to know:
- Delay Tactics: Insurance adjusters may try to drag out the process. This can pressure victims into accepting lower settlements, especially if medical bills are piling up. Working with a lawyer helps hold insurers accountable and keeps your claim on track.
- Lowball Offers: Initial settlement offers are often far less than what your claim is worth. These quick offers may not consider future medical care, emotional distress, or missed workdays. An experienced legal team will negotiate for a full and fair settlement.
- Disputing Liability: Insurance companies often look for ways to shift blame to reduce payouts. Even if the other driver was clearly at fault, insurers may argue shared liability. Legal support can help collect the evidence needed to prove your case.
- Recorded Statements: Be cautious before speaking with the other driver’s insurer. Your words could be used against you. An attorney can guide you on what to say—or handle communication on your behalf.
