When you have been injured in a car accident, you have legal rights that entitle you to compensation for your pain and suffering. When you file a claim with an insurance company, they may seem concerned about your injury but their real goal is to reduce your claim value or dismiss it completely. To assure your rightful compensation, it is in your best interest to consult with a Lake Wales auto accident attorney immediately. At Ovadia Law Group, our well-informed team of car accident attorneys will protect your claim from insurers who try to discredit your grievances. Below are a few ways a qualified attorney will assist you with your legal claim.
Hiring an auto accident attorney after a crash means having someone who is familiar with legal framework in Lake Wales. An attorney’s knowledge regarding Lake Wales personal injury and traffic laws is an invaluable resource. Their familiarity with the legal system may greatly improve your odds at receiving the compensation you deserve for financial loses after an injury.
Communicate and negotiate with the insurance companies so that you don’t have to. Experienced Ovadia Law Group auto accident attorneys understand the strategies used by insurance companies to diminish the value of your claim. Our auto accident attorneys will fight the insurance companies to ensure you are treated fairly and will negotiate for a settlement that gives you the compensation you truly deserve.
Accurately estimate your total damage. If you have already filed an auto accident claim, you may have received initial offer from an insurer. These offers are often lowballed in effort to lower the value of your case and are often done before the insurance companies even fully understand the value of the damages you suffered. Our auto accident lawyers will examine all the details surrounding your case to ensure that your final settlement is accurately mirrored. Medical expenses, lost wages, and property damages are some of the factors our experienced auto injury lawyers look for in a case to estimate the real value of an auto accident claim.
An MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) is a scan using radio waves and magnetic field to create images of internal tissues and organs without using radiation. MRI scans are painless and there are many reasons to get an MRI after an accident. Some examples of reasons to get an MRI include:
Many people involved in car accidents cannot visibly see an injury or immediately feel pain. As such, they may dismiss seeking immediate medical attention to assess their health post-car accident. It is important to remember that the adrenaline one feels after being involved in a car crash can mask pain. Inflammation may also take up to three days to take place in the body after a car accident. It is even possible to have fractures or tears in tissue without immediately knowing.
Getting and MRI can enhance the validity of a car accident injury claim. Injuries that cannot be seen visually or through an x-ray will be revealed in an MRI. The most common types of injury after a car accident that are hidden but revealed with the help of an MRI are:
Insurance companies do not like to pay for MRI’s because they are costly. Insurance companies may even deny a patient’s claim for coverage saying that it’s not necessary, and when appealed, deny the appeal. With an experienced Ovadia Law Group car accident lawyer, you can make sure your health is protected by working with doctors and insurance companies who will ensure you receive the care you need and deserve after being involved in a car accident.
PIP insurance is mandatory for all Florida drivers and covers you regardless of fault in an accident. PIP is in place to ensure those who are injured in a car accident are covered for a minimum of $10,0000 towards any injuries sustained in an accident. PIP is meant to reduce payment delay for injured drivers, and goes towards medical diagnostics. It also goes towards recurring physical rehabilitation costs, medical expenses like surgery and medicine, and lost wages as a result of time needed to recover.
