Do You Need a Lawyer to Settle Your Accident Case? You do not need an attorney to settle every small claim. Usually small claims involve little to no damage to the vehicle and the treatment for the injury lasts as little as a few weeks. In these types of cases, the medical bills are usually less than two thousand dollars and the injuries will not be permanent. Compensation Comes Down To MoneyIn smaller cases, it may be more cost effective for you to settle your own case; otherwise, part of what your attorney recovers will be used to pay an attorney’s fee. However, in consenting to a settlement offer from the insurance company you are assuming that the degree of your injuries has been fully determined. When you accept a settlement offer from the insurance company, you will be required to sign a release. This release is legally designed to permanently prevent any future payment, even if your medical condition deteriorates or the injuries were worse than you previously thought. Therefore, you should be absolutely certain you will not require future medical care before settling.Be Cautious When Giving a Recorded Statement to the Insurance Company |
