Making a Claim for Compensation

If it makes sense to try and resolve your claim quickly, we will do so.  However, in most cases the at fault party or their insurance company will not offer full value for a claim until we have gathered enough evidence to convince them the wrongdoer is responsible and we can prove the amount of damages.  In a wrongful death case, this will occur after our investigation has been completed and any experts we hire have given us all their opinions.  In a medical malpractice case, this will occur when the experts we hire have completed their review of all the medical records and are willing to sign an affidavit swearing that the health care provider was negligent.  In a personal injury case this will occur when the injured person reaches MMI and their physician prepares a final report.  We cannot force the at-fault party or their insurance company to make a fair offer in your case.  However, we will negotiate with them to obtain their highest offer.  Although we will make recommendations regarding a fair settlement, ultimately, you make the decision regarding whether or not to settle.
