Kennewick, WA - After an accident, too many people learn these lessons the hard way - insurance companies are rarely on the victim's side, insurance adjusters make quick contact before physicians notice all injuries, and insurance companies are in business to protect their profits. This means that the initial conversations victims have with insurance companies matter more than they realize, whether it's a seemingly insignificant comment or a social media post that downplays the seriousness of the accident.
Before engaging an insurance company or adjuster, it is important for a victim or their family to recognize that what is said early on may be used later in the process, and that is where the personal injury attorneys at Leavy Schultz Davis come in. For over 75 years, the team has delivered real results for real people, resulting in a proven track record of high-value settlements and verdicts. With direct access to skilled attorneys, victims who work with the law firm receive client-focused results based on their needs and tenacious advocacy from staff who are passionate about holding responsible parties accountable.
As an extensive guide for personal injury victims navigating insurance companies, Leavy Schultz Davis. advises clients never to admit fault (personal opinion or extra information not needed by the insurer), not to provide names/contacts of friends, family members, or bystanders, and not to accept the first offer, no matter how high it is. The firm also advises clients not to discuss any injuries until a victim has seen a qualified physician or had a complete examination. This approach helps protect future claims, particularly in cases involving emotional distress or pain that may recur or require ongoing treatment.
Victims who seek legal counsel immediately after an accident shift the tone of communication with insurance companies and adjusters from casual back-and-forth to more focused, documented discussions. In the presence of a personal injury attorney, insurance companies stop trying to trap victims with their own comments/actions and start following a structured process with records, evidence, and deadlines, thereby reducing miscommunication and vagueness and protecting key details.
Leavy Schultz Davis assists clients in navigating these insurance-related processes while providing legal counsel across a range of personal injury matters. The firm handles cases involving truck accidents, car accidents, underinsured motorist (UIM) claims, motorcycle accidents, traumatic brain injuries, birth injuries, slip-and-fall accidents, and more. Its approach emphasizes building strong client relationships by spending time with victims, addressing questions, understanding individual needs, and responding to concerns throughout the process.
