How Insurance Companies Do Cost-Benefit Analyses of Personal Injury Claims
When filing personal injury claims, you should prepare for the process to be long and tedious, with an insurance company that seems uncooperative and slow. A Orange Park injury attorney can help you deal with the insurance company and try to get your case settled more quickly.
Insurance defense lawyers get more money by dragging out the litigation process as long as possible, not by settling early. Insurance adjusters have a vested interest in getting cases settled. But if settlement talks break down and your case goes to litigation, your file moves off the adjuster’s desk and onto a defense attorney’s. And defense attorneys earn most of their money by litigating. They bill the insurer by the hour for services rendered and costs incurred and are hired to win the case, not to settle early. If your Orange Park injury attorney takes your case to a lawsuit, you can expect the litigation process to be even more laborious and time-consuming for both of you. Defense attorneys are not looking for easy opportunities to settle cases quickly, even if you and your attorney would be willing to settle, so you and your attorney must be willing and ready to go all the way to trial if necessary. Some insurance companies never settle small-to-medium range cases unless you file a lawsuit. Your Orange Park injury attorney will know that certain state and national insurers are notorious within the industry for being stingy and conservative about settling personal injury claims. Those carriers have an entrenched corporate philosophy, maybe even a formal written-down policy, of not settling small claims—especially if the claimant alleges soft-tissue injuries, and especially if the claimant is not represented by a Orange Park injury attorney. These insurers know that claimants without legal counsel are often ignorant about aspects of the law and might believe they have to accept any settlement offered. They also know that most personal injury attorneys are more inclined to settle than go to trial, which puts the insurer at an advantageous position in settlement talks. Contact Us If you are filing a personal injury claim, it is in your best interest to be represented by a Orange Park injury attorney. Call John Fagan Accident Lawyers at 1-844-JOHN-411.

After my auto accident a close friend of mine recommended this law firm because a family member was employed there.... Initially I was concerned that if I became unhappy with their service that it may affect my friendship in some way. I am so happy I did not allow that to stop me. Mary was wonderful. Every time I called or emailed her, she immediately responded. At a time when it felt like my life was turned upside down, it was nice to have someone that could help me understand that it would all be okay. I would recommend Mary AND this law firm to anyone.read more

This law firm agreed to take our family case, told us they sent paperwork to the nursing home, then wouldn't send us... the copies, no return phone calls, or even let us speak to an attorney. JAMIE was the " Case Manager" has said she would call many times, but not followed through. We even accepted the excuse she was sick for a week. I understand these are hard times with covid-19 but contacting or phoning when promised is paramount in a situation like this. I WILL GLADLY PUT A NEW POST UP IF I CAN SPEAK TO AN ATTORNEY OR Daphne, anyone that will work hard, and at least return calls like they say they will.read more

My experience with this firm was not only better than I anticipated, it was a huge relief. I didn't have to babysit... like I did with the large firm I left to come here. Attorney, David Drill was professional, knowledgeable, understanding and straightforward. He was never dismissive or intolerant of my tears and always asked me for my input while offering his perspective and expertise. The office staff was always friendly and responsive. I will be referring literally everyone I can here. I can’t thank them enough.read more

Over all it was not bad.. dealing with work comp I found that very few are on your side and no matter who you are, you... are now viewed as a lazy criminal. Debbie was great and communication was clear. Dave did his job but nothing more. I do not feel I was prepared for what I heard in mediation to the extent of the numbers.. as an office 4 stars.. Debbie... 5 stars... the experience... well I'm sorry anyone is even looking for an attorney for help.read more

My experience was not very pleasant, first we were new clients without any experience about car accidents for that... reason we did not know how the process will be or how long that could last. When we started the process we never got explained step by step how will work. We expected more communication from the person in charge of the case in our case was Adrianne, She never answered a call and when I sent emails I did not get an answer on time, most of the time it took more than 48 hours for her to respond and I was not pleased with the answer of my question (leaving me with doubts about what I was asking) when the case of property damage part was finally over with her, the case goes on demand for the insurer which never I saw some copy but I have to clarify that Mrs Daphne nail was very kind.read more

First off, if I could give Daphne ZERO stars, I would. She was terrible with communication! She could never accept a... phone call, I always had to leave messages that she never returned, and didn't even call me on SCHEDULED conference calls.
The three stars is only because of my beginning experiences.....
My case was transferred to Adrienne, if you have a case here, REQUEST HER. She was such a breath of fresh air. She kept me updated via email about everything. I understand that a lot of phone tag happens during these cases, but she kept me updated on everything. Not a week went by that she didn't tell me what was going on. She fought very hard for me to get my bills and med pay down so that my settlement was better. In the end, she turned an awful experience into a good one. She definitely deserves 5 stars!!
Thanks!read more

I don't reccomend this attorney at all. They drug my case out for 6 years. I went 8m without them contacting me. They... aren't genuinely for you. I was told that my case wasn't putting any money in their pockets. That's when I knew I had to fire them. 6 years too long! I reccomend Byrd & Byrd!read more
