POLICE NEWS GET YOUR LOWEST...OUT THE DOOR<br />
After exchanging war stories and talking about our common friends in the law enforcement world, the<br />
deputy detailed the car accident she was involved in. She was sitting at a traffic signal, when without warning<br />
her vehicle was forcibly struck from behind. She recalled her neck and lower back being thrust forward and<br />
snapping back and detailed how sore she’s been since the accident. We looked at her vehicle and found a scratch<br />
on the trailer hitch. We talked about the need for treatment, signed her up, and then returned to our office.<br />
Back at the office, letters were sent to the property and vehicle owners and their respective insurance carriers.<br />
The negotiation process began with the adjusters who treated the insurance company’s money like it was<br />
their own. Meanwhile the clients sought out medical treatment from Chiropractors and Orthopedic Specialists.<br />
The lawyers, based upon the treatment and recommendations of the doctors, and after approval by our clients,<br />
determined the value of the respective claims. Once we established that number, a formal demand was sent to<br />
each insurance company to see how seriously they considered the claims.<br />
The initial response on our client who fell through the floor was favorable, but our claim quickly unraveled<br />
when he was arrested and charged with distribution of oxycodone. Despite filing suit and laying out all the<br />
costs, there was to be no settlement of this claim and the firm bore all the costs.<br />
The response to the car accident was less than favorable. Too little damage was the argument. Positive<br />
MRI findings and a surgical recommendation, along with tough negotiating and the threat of filing a complaint,<br />
persuaded the insurance company to ultimately settle for the policy limits. Both of the clients had compelling<br />
claims and compelling stories that required our assistance to guide them through the treacherous twists and<br />
turns when dealing with insurance companies. While we place a name and a face to all of our clients regardless<br />
of their backgrounds and position in life, I realized that insurance companies view each person as nothing more<br />
than just a claim number. Insurance companies evaluate claims based upon the severity of the accident and the<br />
resulting injuries, the treatment rendered, and the permanency of the injuries. As the voice of our clients, it is<br />
essential to develop a rapport with a claims adjuster, and then with a supervisor who has the authority to actually<br />
settle the claim.<br />
Interestingly, much like in my former “life” with the FBI where I was unable to pick and choose the victims<br />
of crime, I now represent individuals from all walks of life, regardless of their status in the community or<br />
their economic condition. Protecting a person’s legal rights is truly akin to “We Protect and Serve”.<br />
