STEP 2: GET A GOOD LAWYER
  • Get an experienced, qualified attorney
  • The insurance company is looking out for itself, not you
  • The adjuster will look for every opportunity to devalue your case
  • A good lawyer will help you understand and present your case

In every personal injury case where there are serious injuries, you need to consult with an experienced, qualified attorney before you talk to the insurance adjuster or sign any papers.  I’m James Hippard, and I have 25 years of experience as a personal injury lawyer.  Whether you hire me or someone else, you need a good lawyer on your side.

Most people assume that the insurance company will take care of everything because that is what insurance is for.  Unfortunately, that is not the way the system works.  The insurance company is not responsible for seeing that you, as the injured plaintiff, are fully and fairly compensated.  On the contrary, the insurance company will do whatever it can to pay as little as possible on your case.

The insurance company assigns an adjuster to represent the defendant.  The adjuster is the paid employee of the insurance company, trained to protect the interests of the insurance company and the defendant.  The adjuster looks for every opportunity to devalue your case.  The way the adjuster questions you about the accident or about your injuries can make your case look weak.  By consulting with your lawyer before you give a statement to the adjuster, you have a better understanding of the important facts in your case, and you can avoid being manipulated into saying things that can hurt your case. If you have already given a statement a good lawyer can begin the process of damage control, if said something that weakens your case.
