Injury Lawyers helping clients in Fort Lauderdale
Working with insurance companies is not an easy task, especially if you have been injured in a motorcycle accident. Even though motorcycle drivers have gained a reputation for being reckless, many motorcycle accidents are not their fault. When you are seriously injured because a driver of a car, SUV, truck or semi was careless, you need an experienced injury lawyer to help prove liability and to seek justice and compensation on your behalf. At the Ft Lauderdale Law Office of Steven Slootsky, our attorneys will help you fight for your rights. We know what to expect from insurance companies, how to use the Florida laws to your advantage and how to negotiate to help you get awarded money for damages.
Dealing with Florida Insurance Companies
Understanding your rights is vital for your claim. Insurance companies have an operating basis geared to benefit them, which means denying or paying as little as possible on claims. If insurance adjusters can get you to admit fault or get you to make statements so your injury appears less serious, they will do so.
If an insurance company representative or adjuster contacts you, you should refer the person to your attorney. Our injury lawyers at the Law Office of Steven Slootsky prefer to deal with your insurance adjusters ourselves so we can focus on your best interests and protect your rights. The sooner you contact us the better chance we have to deal effectively with your case. It is easier to gather evidence and contact witnesses if we are immediately involved in the case. Also, witnesses usually remember important details more easily when contacted soon after the motorcycle accident.
What you should do for your claim:
- Take photographs of the accident scene, your vehicle, other vehicles and your injuries
- Get copies of your medical records
- Take notes regarding how your injuries hinder your ability to perform daily activities
- Take down names and contact numbers of witnesses
- Note bills relating to the accident and injuries
- Keep your documentation in a safe location and make copies for your injury lawyer
