We get paid legal fees only if we win you money for your case. If we are unable to win money for your auto accident case you don’t owe us any attorney fees. Licensed insurance adjusters who are employed by the insurance company adjust claims for Las Vegas auto accident cases. The highest goal of the insurance adjuster is to pay the smallest amount of money from the employer insurance company possible. By delaying payment of claims, an insurance company earns interest on the money they have invested. Don’t be tricked into thinking the insurance adjuster represents you for your Las Vegas auto accident. He or she may seem nice, but these people do not represent you. At times the insurance company may hire a local Las Vegas Auto Accident claims investigator to investigate and settle your claim. The insurance adjuster pays the smallest amount of money Nevada law forces them to pay. Insurance companies are businesses whose main purpose is to increase profit. They will not pay a dime above the amount of money Nevada law forces them to pay. They try and earn the most profit for the company possible. They don’t try to make a generous payment to a person injured in an auto accident. Insurance companies do not try to locate the best Las Vegas doctor for your injuries. They won’t pay you money in advance if you are unable to work and not getting paid. They will not give you money up front to pay your medical bills or to get collection companies off your back. They don’t race to get your car fixed. They do not hold committee meetings to figure out a way to pay you the largest settlement they can for your auto accident claim.
It is not in your best interest to work on your own auto accident claim or to try and settle with the insurance company directly without a Las Vegas Auto Accident Attorney helping you. It is of great importance for you to rely on an experienced attorney to help with your Las Vegas auto accident case who settles them on a continuing basis, and who has the knowledge and experience in helping people with Las Vegas auto accidents. The probability you will receive the highest personal injury settlement and get the best possible medical assistance with the least trouble rises by hiring our office. You won’t have to figure out which medical office will help you. Our office has paralegals with experience who work side by side with an attorney who oversees their work and assists with car repair issues caused by a Las Vegas auto accident. Your auto may be considered a total loss. We will deal with the insurance adjusters and get them to pay what your car was worth. We will help to get your car paid off with the bank.
We have case managers and attorneys with experience working on Las Vegas Auto Accident claims who will study the legal forms and who have knowledge with auto accident general release documents the insurance company will want you to sign. Don’t sign documents from the insurance company before our attorneys read them and make certain only the correct legal language appears. If you don’t do that you may find you signed away important rights to payment for some types of property damages, rental car expense, automobile storage charges and other property damage rights. The standard general release form may result in you giving up legal rights to recover money for a supplement for additional damage not uncovered until the first auto repair is finished. The most important reason to make sure the legal forms are correct is that signing documents with certain language will give up any right to recover money for personal injuries or medical expenses. My office handled an auto accident case where the insurance adjuster sent us a general release for the property damages. If we had not changed the wording, the document would have released any additional payment for the injury and medical bill claims. Many times we must change the forms submitted by the insurance adjuster to protect our auto accident cases. There are many cases where people filed suit against the insurance company where they didn’t realize they were releasing the entire case.
Our attorneys have worked on tens of thousands of auto accident claims and have a lot of experience. Before working on your own case, think about how many auto accident cases you have handled. It should be clear that you should let an attorney with experience in the many laws, procedures and pitfalls involved in these Las Vegas auto accident claims resolve your case. You should give the work involved in solving the problems created by your Las Vegas auto accident case to Jack Bernstein and the attorneys in his law office. Do not hurry to settle your case after your auto accident in Las Vegas Nevada. It is best to let a Las Vegas Chiropractor or medical doctor with experience helping victims of auto accidents help you heal before you settle. Physical therapists and massage therapists can assist you in healing your injuries. Some injuries to your body worsen rather than get better as time goes by. Doctors experienced in helping people injured in auto accidents may request diagnostic tests such as CT scans or MRI’s to find out if you have suffered an injury to the physical structures of your body. These sophisticated tests help reveal internal injuries to your spine and the discs and structures in your back or other body parts. Some of these injuries will heal only after aggressive medical care such as epidural injections or surgery is done. Some injuries such as nerve injuries in the wrists or brain may slowly get worse over time after an auto accident. There is great significance to your Las Vegas Auto Accident attorney keeping those thoughts prominently in his mind as he helps you with your Las Vegas auto accident case resolution.
Many medical offices want their money paid for medical care at the time of each office visit, especially if you have no health insurance. It is much harder to pay for medical help after a Las Vegas auto accident, especially when your injury causes you to miss time from your job. Experienced attorneys who have handled many Las Vegas auto accident cases know that the doctor office letters of protection should be signed immediately and faxed back so the doctor has confidence they will be paid at the time of the settlement. It means to them the attorney believes he will win your case, which will cause you to get all needed medical help without any reluctance by the doctor’s office. Other types of Las Vegas medical companies such as MRI centers and surgical centers will take a letter of protection and wait to get their money at the time of settlement also. Another good reason to retain an experienced attorney such as Jack Bernstein who helps clients with Las Vegas auto accident cases is he will immediately sign the doctors lien form causing the medical office to trust they will get their money out of the settlement by Jack’s office and won’t hesitate to give the medical help needed. Nevada Attorney Ethics Regulations that guide Nevada attorneys conduct requires the attorney handling an injury claim to pay all medical offices with a lien letter out of the settlement or they are subject to discipline. If you don’t have an attorney to sign the lien letter, the Medical provider will not have the same level of assurance they will get paid at the time of settlement since the Nevada Bar attorney ethics rules do not apply to non-attorneys. If the medical office was not paid by someone without an attorney, their only recourse would be to bring an action against you in court. Doctors and medical providers don’t want to take that chance. Most chiropractor and doctor offices will give medical assistance needed for injuries suffered in a Las Vegas auto accident and wait to get paid only if there is an auto accident attorney such as Jack Bernstein assisting with your auto accident case.
Funding companies may advance cash to a Las Vegas auto accident client when they have an attorney willing to honor the loan agreement the funding company has you sign. This agreement requires you to pay the money back at the time of settlement. Nevada Bar ethics rules force attorneys to pay the loan back to the funding company at the time of settlement. If there is no attorney to agree to honor the loan documents you sign, they would need to bring an action against you in court to force you to pay them back. They normally won’t take that chance where they are without the protection of an attorney who must honor the loan repayment or face bar punishment and be personally forced to repay them.
Additional points to consider when hiring a Las Vegas auto accident attorney include how insurance companies strategize on how to pay you the smallest possible settlement. The staff at insurance companies work together on a team (they call them units) in the most strategic way to give you the smallest sum of money possible to have you sign a release. The insurance unit consisting of the adjuster, the supervisor, and the manager (and in bigger cases a regional manager and the home office claims committee) work together on every auto accident claim and talk about the weaknesses and strengths of your case. An important part of their discussion is whether you represent yourself. If you are handling your own case it means that a non attorney will rarely have the knowledge or skill to bring an action in the Las Vegas Courts if the insurance company refuses to pay a reasonable sum for your Las Vegas auto accident claim. The insurance adjuster knows that it takes an auto accident attorney who is experienced to bring an action in the Las Vegas Court. They know that non attorneys will not be aware of the laws and legal rules in court necessary to fight the insurance company’s legal defense team. The insurance representatives and insurance defense attorneys are skilled at preventing you from getting a settlement in the high value range for your Las Vegas Auto Accident claim. If you live outside of Nevada, it is wise not to hire an attorney from a state who is not licensed to practice law in Nevada. The insurance adjuster will consider that. There is also the possibly the out of state attorney could suggest that you settle for a smaller amount of money than you should because he or she would not be able to file a lawsuit in the Las Vegas District Court if the insurance company refused to offer a fair settlement.
Many times you will obtain a significantly higher settlement by having an attorney experienced in working on Las Vegas auto accident claims help you. Many times Insurance companies will offer higher settlements for auto accident cases when an experienced attorney is negotiating with the insurance company on your behalf. Generally, you will receive more money in your pocket than you would without an attorney. I work as part of a team with the attorneys in our Las Vegas law office during settlement negotiations on all Las Vegas Auto accident cases to use the best strategy to get you the most money. Often I personally negotiate your personal injury case myself. I have worked with thousands of auto accident cases and have extensive experience negotiating the maximum settlement on auto accident case. Your auto accident case is worked on under a contingency contract which means we get paid attorney fees only if we win you money.
It is wise to hire an attorney with experience in working on the problems associated with Las Vegas auto Accident cases for many very important reasons.
