Many accident victims initially feel uncertain about the prospect of pursuing a claim for compensation against the negligent party whose actions caused their personal injuries. This uncertainty can be magnified when the insurance companies or the negligent party denies responsibility for the accident or the damage that it has caused. In general, when a personal injury has a substantial impact on your life, you may have a valid personal injury case—regardless of whether that impact comes in the form of a prolonged hospital stay, painful recovery or time spent away from work while you recover.

FAQ: How do I know if I really have a valid claim for compensation after suffering an injury in Erie County? +
While every case is different, if you are suffering from a personal injury that has a substantial impact on your life, you likely have a valid claim for compensation. Likewise, if someone else’s negligent or reckless actions caused your injuries, you may have a valid claim for compensation. Our lawyers can help evaluate the best strategy for recovering that compensation, which may include pursuing an insurance claim entirely outside of the courtroom. We can help you establish who is financially liable for the injuries you have suffered and can pursue compensation from an insurance policy maintained by the at-fault party.
FAQ: Should I talk to the insurance adjusters or provide a written statement if I am approached after my accident? +
No. We cannot stress this enough—the insurance companies are not on your side, even if it is your own insurance policy in question. Immediately after an accident, the company might send insurance adjusters to get a recorded statement at a time when the full extent and impact of your injuries cannot be known with reasonable accuracy. It’s easy to accidentally make a statement that the insurance company can use to minimize their responsibility for paying you compensation for those injuries. Further, you may not yet know who or what caused the accident in which you were injured. Our personal injury lawyers can speak to the insurance company on your behalf and while you may eventually be asked to provide a formal statement, we can help you avoid making statements that can potentially damage your case going forward.
