The Insurance Company Is Not Your Friend

You’ve probably seen the billboards, TV commercials and other advertisements from the insurance companies saying that they’re “Like a good neighbor…” or that you’re in “Good Hands…”

It’s One Thing To Say You’re There For People And Another To Back It Up

The truth is, these ads are designed to keep people from viewing insurance companies as the large, big business corporations that they really are.

When it comes to insurance claims, insurance adjusters and the insurers they work for are not in the business of handing out free money. Instead, they want to protect their bottom line by handing out as little as possible. But when you’re hurt and in need of some financial help, the last thing you need is the insurance company pinching pennies and denying your claim.

At Holley, Rosen & Beard, LLC, our attorneys and team of professionals know full-well how the insurance companies operate because we have been practicing law for over 50 years. We have handled numerous cases, achieved substantial awards and settlements on behalf of our clients, and ultimately, know what it takes to get our clients the money they need when they need it.

When it comes to car accidents, slip-and-fall injuries, and other accident and injury claims, we help our clients:

• Get the treatments they really need: All too often, the insurance company will try to limit the types of treatments they will cover. As your lawyers, we want to see that you get all the medical attention you need.
• Consider the long-term effects: An injury can have lingering, long-term consequences that may require treatment down the road. We work with medical professionals to make sure we have a clear idea of what to expect and will pursue a settlement that covers these potential costs.
• Stay patient: Many attorneys want their clients to take the first settlement offered by the insurance company. If the initial offer is the best you can get, then yes, we might advise you to take it. However, we are here to help you understand your options. We know what a fair settlement looks like and can advise you as to the best course of action.
• Take a claim as far as it needs to go: Whether you’re about to file a claim, have met with a denial or otherwise need some help, we can step in to provide representation. Our lawyers are skilled litigators. This means they know how to build cases and are willing to go the distance rather than roll over and take an unsatisfactory settlement when this get challenging.

Just because you’re required to have car insurance doesn’t mean you need to let the insurance company dictate your claim. With our help, the insurance company will be more apt to treat you fairly. They know that once you have a good lawyer, they can’t bank on a person’s ignorance of the law or insurance coverage and get away with paying out as little as possible.
