The Importance of Legal Representation
Many clients like you wonder why you can’t just fight these legal battles on your own.
The truth is, you could! However, be prepared to dedicate a substantial amount of time, effort, and money to learning about the complex legal system. Gathering evidence like police records and expert testimonies, as well as negotiating with the insurance agents, would fall solely on your shoulders, while also having to deal with the emotional and physical toll of your accident.
When you trust accident lawyers like Shaevitz & Shaevitz to handle your case, you’re able to focus on what really matters: your recovery. We will gather evidence, build your case, and represent you in court or settlement negotiations.
As your lawyers, we will assist you in filing any necessary claims and ensure that you meet all necessary deadlines. For example, you only have 30 days after a car accident to file your no-fault claim, which covers at least $50,000 in medical bills and lost wages.
Additionally, every accident has a statute of limitations, preventing you from taking legal action after a certain amount of time. With legal experts on your side, we can ensure you take care of what you need to before the deadlines pass.
Most importantly, as your legal representation, we will negotiate with the insurance companies on your behalf. Insurance agents often utilize minimizing tactics in an attempt to lower your compensation. With our expertise, we’re able to protect your compensation and represent your interests! If the insurance company refuses to settle, we are prepared to pursue justice in court.
