Some Tips to Maximize the Personal Injury Settlement Claim

1. Some Tips to Maximize The Personal Injury Settlement Claim

2. So, you have been injured and are eligible to file a personal injury claim. The question is: what can you do to maximize it? One thing most people do not know is the fact that personal injury claims are extremely complicated and have to taken with extreme care and understanding. They are not simply “file and receive” cases. If you are dealing with a personal injury claim, or are about to deal with one, here are some tips that will help you maximize your settlement.

3. Attorney’s Experience Matters! Surely you are not one of those who believes that having an attorney by your side will increase your final settlement. Technically, it should, but there is a twist: if the attorney is inexperienced, you could lose more than you could afford to lose. You see, having the right attorney by your side is essential in landing a huge settlement. You require someone with the right set of skills and expertise, someone who has handled hundreds of cases before. Experience is everything. Do not gamble by selecting a random attorney. Play it safe, and invest in yourself by securing the right attorney.

4. Get Off Social Media Ranting on social media about your accident will not help your case, but quite the opposite. The information could reach the insurance company (they will be watching you), and when it does, whatever you said or posted could and will be used against you. The information you post on social media is not private, and it becomes public once it is out there. To maximize your settlement, keep off social media until your case is closed. Or at least, try not to post anything until you receive your settlement.

5. Preserve the Evidence As a plaintiff, you have a “burden of proof” in a personal injury case. This means that you have to present sufficient evidence and prove your claim at trial. With that in mind, you should always try and obtain as much evidence as possible after an accident. This involves: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Photographs Records of the location Accident report Eyewitness statements Doctor’s report Police report Video surveillance (if possible to get a copy)

6. Be Honest With Your Attorney The best way to really ensure that you and your attorney have good communication is to remain honest and concise. Tell your attorney everything that happened, how it happened and what your expectations are. It is best to face reality and to have normal expectations than to expect the impossible.
