Accident Cases Are Really Insurance Claims!
It is rare for a personal injury case such as an automobile accident or any injury case to not really be an insurance claim. Although most cases settle, if a lawsuit is filed it has to be filed against a person that the insurance company insures and, only in rare cases, can the insurance company be actually named as a party defendant. The jury is never told that the insurance company is the real party in interest. In fact, laws have been created that will cause a mistrial where the word “insurance” is even spoken in front of a jury during trial. This is despite the fact that the insurance company pays the verdict or settlement, hires the attorneys that are speaking to the jury, determines what experts and discovery they will pay for and makes the decision about whether the case will end up going to trial or will settle.
