Insurance Companies: Who are They Fighting for?Many insurance companies have entertaining and memorable advertisements. Although these advertisements portray their adjusters (insurance agents) as friendly and altruistic professionals who are willing to sacrifice to help fulfill an insured’s claim, this often contrary to the truth. The insurance industry is a not only a billion dollar business, it is a multi-billion dollar business. Most of the big insurance companies have shareholders, and the interests of the shareholders are the primary concern of these insurance companies. This means that the less claims they pay out, the more profits the shareholders will make at the end of the year. That is not good news for the policyholders who depend on their insurance companies to pay claims when and as they should. Insurance companies will fight tooth and nail to low ball, limit, or try to trick you into releasing them from some if not liability to paying out your claim.
Lawyers as AdvocatesIt is clear that if you have been in an accident, it is unwise to depend solely on your insurance company to look out for your best interests. By hiring an attorney to help pursue your claim, you will be taking the most important step in preventing the insurance companies from taking advantage of you. If you are seriously hurt, or your car badly damaged, both, or if you have only experienced minor injury to either or both, locating and securing legal counsel is the best thing you can do to ensure the success of your claim.
