Filing an Auto Accident Lawsuit in Colorado Springs
Wednesday, May 19, 2010 by Victoria C. Swanson
Common Misconceptions
Insurance companies are required to give fair compensation to people injured in car accidents. If you are filing a third-party claim for injuries sustained in a car accident, the other party’s insurance company will, in all likelihood, offer you compensation that is well below what a personal injury lawyer would demand. Unfortunately, car accident victims sometimes accept the ‘quick money’ from insurance companies because they believe, based on suggestions from the insurance company, that they will never receive a more favorable settlement. If you are filing an automobile accident lawsuit in Colorado Springs and are unsure about how to deal with an insurance company, do not hesitate to contact attorneys at Sears & Swanson.
Victims of car accidents in Colorado Springs should try to reach a settlement as soon as possible. Naturally, insurance companies would prefer that you settle quickly in order to avoid the potentiality of a higher-cost settlement after the full extent of the injury and associated costs becomes apparent. While there is a statue of limitations of two years for filing a claim, accident victims may need time to assess the full extent of the injuries and their associated costs. An auto accident might cause a person to be unable to work for a long period of time, or unable to work the same type of job they had in the past. Also, remember that the insurance company at fault will only pay once, after your claim has been settled. Before you file an auto accident lawsuit in Colorado Springs, speak to an attorney.
