Claim Communication and Strategy

Dealing With Insurance Companies

Insurance carriers evaluate claims with their own financial interests in mind.

Attorney Reddin communicates with insurers, reviews available coverage and claim documentation, and develops a demand or litigation strategy based on the evidence and damages presented.

A Claim Should Be Evaluated Carefully

Statements, medical documentation, coverage issues, recorded communications, and the timing of a claim may affect how an insurer evaluates responsibility and damages. Careful review helps ensure the claim is presented based on the available evidence.

Documenting the Impact of an Injury

Damages in a Personal Injury Claim

Depending on the facts and applicable law, a personal injury claim may involve medical expenses, lost wages or loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, and other legally recoverable damages.

The existence and value of any claim depend on the specific facts, evidence, causation, and applicable law.

Medical Expenses

Past and future treatment-related costs may be considered where supported by the facts and medical evidence.

Lost Income

Wage loss and reduced earning capacity may be evaluated when an injury affects the ability to work.

Pain and Suffering

The physical and personal impact of an injury may be considered as part of a claim where permitted by law.

Related Losses

Other legally recoverable losses may be evaluated depending on the circumstances and available proof.

Negotiation and Litigation

Litigation and Resolution

Some injury claims can be resolved through negotiation. Others require litigation.

The firm evaluates settlement offers in light of the available evidence, documented damages, legal risks, and the client's objectives.

Every Claim Requires an Individual Evaluation

The appropriate strategy depends on the strength of the evidence, the nature of the injuries, available insurance coverage, disputed issues, documented losses, and the client's goals. No particular outcome or recovery is guaranteed.
