Car Accident Claim Tips
If you have been in a car wreck that another’s negligence caused, you can seek compensation through an insurance claim or a personal injury lawsuit. In either case, there are several things you can do to support your claim and potentially ease the process of securing compensation for medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and more.
5 Tips to get the most out of your car accident claim:
- Watch what you say after an accident. Avoid saying things like, “I’m sorry” or “I didn’t see you.” Never admit fault, even if you think you have made a mistake. Doing so could work against you and possibly reduce the available compensation.
- Report your accident to your insurance company. If you fail to alert your provider, you could be denied coverage. Not reporting an accident could also be used against you in your personal injury case.
- Be mindful of Florida’s statute of limitations. In the Sunshine State, you typically have two years from the date of the accident to file a claim. You may not receive compensation if you start your claim after this period.
- Keep track of everything related to the accident. You should make certain to gather the police report, proof of medical care, receipts, contracts, and other important documents.
- Write a professional demand letter. When communicating what you want to your insurance company, tell them in writing. A professional demand letter should include your damage claims, documentation to support them, and a response deadline. A demand letter can often spur settlement action.
While the tips listed are useful, we understand that making a personal injury claim remains difficult. You do not have to navigate this process alone. Turn to Stallworth Law for assistance from start to finish. We have helped numerous people and recovered $10+ million in settlements.
