This is another question I recently received.<\/p>\n
A person was injured in a car wreck, they submitted a demand letter, and tried to negotiate, but the insurance company was stonewalling them.\u00a0 What are they supposed to do?<\/p>\n
There isn’t a good answer for someone in this situation.\u00a0 Insurance companies may engage in stonewalling tactics that are designed to get you to accept less than the full value of your claim.<\/p>\n
When you hire us, and this happens, our response is to file suit.\u00a0 That’s the alternative and the hammer you can use to get a new adjuster, get a new perspective to the insurance company from a lawyer and to prove that you can enforce the claim.<\/p>\n
But if you’re trying to represent yourself, you don’t have that option.\u00a0 As a result, the insurance company, knowing that you don’t have a real alternative, doesn’t have an incentive to pay the full value of your claim.<\/p>\n
