Injured in a Car Accident? Don't Hesitate Consulting an Auto Accident Attorney

Injured in a car accident while going to work or perhaps strolling around town and it wasn’t your fault? – Tragic. No source of income and can no longer provide for the family. In addition to that, medical bills are piled up due to doctor visits and medications as a result of the auto accident – Double Whammy. Most likely the insurance company will offer a car accident settlement, but is it sufficient enough to cover the medical expenses that wages that has been lost? More likely than not, no - it won’t be.

 

Bakersfield, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/13/2014 -- Prior to accepting the insurance company’s offer, it is advised to consult an auto accident attorney about the options that are available.

Choosing the limited tort option, one may not be able to recover from the pain and the catastrophe he’s been in or out of pocket expenses. For every rule there’s an exemption, however, it’s vital to consult with an auto accident attorney in Bakersfield. There’s nothing to worry about, most attorneys offer the consultation free of charge.

An experienced auto accident attorney will fight for their clients regardless of whether or not the party at fault has adequate insurance coverage. As an insured car accident victim, one is entitled to compensation for the injuries he sustained as a result of another’s negligence. The victim has the right to collect from his own insurance company. This is why he has the insurance on the first place.

Yes, it may be enticing to accept the insurance company’s offer but not so fast! Take time to consult with a auto accident lawyer first. Chances are if one instantly accepted the insurance company’s offer, he will likely have to wait until the car accident claim is settled before he can receive his compensation for the damage. But if the auto accident attorney thinks he or she can get the person a larger payment, hiring an auto accident attorney will be one’s best option.

Deciding whether to clear things up with the insurance company or hire a car accident attorney is not something that one wants to take lightly, it is not a decision that one has to hesitate. The time for filing a car accident lawsuit is limited. This is called the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations is two years from the date of the accident. This may seem like plenty of time, but still, it’s very important to hire an auto accident attorney in Bakersfield with an ample time to look into the case and file the lawsuit before the statute of limitations lapse.
