Insurance Adjusters
Insurance adjusters are paid and trained to pay as little as possible on each
personal injury claim. This means that insurance adjusters will always try to
save their employers (the insurance companies) money at your expense. Personal injury victims often hope that the adjuster will “do the right thing.”
Unfortunately the right thing for the insurance company is exactly the opposite
of the right thing for you.
Additional Information
Insurance adjusters are trained to investigate the
car accident as quickly as possible. Adjuster’s investigations usually include
taking recorded statements from the drivers and witnesses, getting the police report and photographing the property damage of the cars involved in the car wreck. The adjuster will try to complete their investigation to establish the extent of the injuries within the first week of the accident.
Many insurance adjusters will try to settle the personal injury claims as quickly as possible. This often results in settlements that do not fully compensate for future medical expenses and lost wages of the victim. Quick settlements mean that your rights to your personal injury claim end. If your injury later worsens and requires extensive treatment or surgery, then the quick settlement may have been a huge bargain for the adjuster but a huge loss for you.
Adjusters often argue that you could not have been injured if you delay in seeking medical treatment, if you have gaps in your medical treatment, or if the property damage to your vehicle is less than a thousand dollars.
