3 sad truths about personal injury settlements in Wisconsin

1. Insurance companies use data to minimize your settlement amount

The life’s work of hundreds of career mathematicians is built into your policy limits and terms. When the insurance company calls you, they will sound sympathetic. They will follow their script, telling you over and over again, "We’re sorry this happened" and "We just want to get this taken care of for you right away."

But the reality of insurance companies is that they are looking out always for their bottom line—not your well-being. Insurance companies have their own software that saves claims history and analyzes claims. They often use data to provide an amount to settle a claim. Data that is not relevant to you, as a person—your experiences and your pain and suffering. You need an advocate for you. Someone who looks out for your best interest, and that is not the insurance company.

2. Sign-and-settle lawyers take a cut of your payout without increasing your settlement amount

Sign-and-settle lawyers are simply gathering paperwork to send to the insurance company. Over-the-phone sign-and-settle marketing has been happening for decades. No insurance claim takes only one call. If it does, then you are paying a legal fee unnecessarily. They want you to think getting your case handled fast is in your best interest, which is rarely the case.

3. Insurance companies value your injury claim based on the quality of your lawyer.

Insurance companies know whether your lawyer has a reputation for treating every case as though it will go to trial. Insurance companies are aware of law firms’ reputations for filing suits on claims. Only when an insurer is aware that your attorney will file suit on a claim will an adjuster place a high value on your claim. You need a lawyer who will make decisions on how to handle your case based on how to ensure you are reimbursed for all of your damages, not based on how fast they can get it over with.  Warshafsky attorneys treat every single client’s case as if it will go to trial. This ensures that we are prepared to file suit if the case requires it, and we do not need to start from scratch in order to prepare.

It is that simple… If your case isn’t prepared with the intent of walking into court to try it, WITH a trial attorney, you can count on getting less. I worked for 6 years representing insurance companies, and that’s the way they think.
