Should I Try to Negotiate with an Insurance Company If I Have Been Involved in an Accident?
Most people are contacted by an insurance company after an accident. People often wonder whether they should try to negotiate their own claim or hire an attorney. The insurance company knows the rules and most people do not. It is like playing football where one side knows the rules and the other side does not. What are the chances that you will win? Hiring an attorney equalizes the playing field and gives you the information and advice you need to make an informed decision.
