Good afternoon, San Diego. I’m Beatrice Ramirez reporting for the Encinitas Gazette, and today I have the pleasure of speaking with Richard Morse, a distinguished attorney at Morse Injury Law. Richard, thank you so much for joining me.
Negotiating a Fair Outcome
Richard, can you walk our viewers through the process of negotiation and settlement in personal injury cases?
Certainly, Beatrice. After we’ve thoroughly investigated your case, gathered all the necessary evidence, and determined liability, we move into the negotiation phase. This involves communicating with the insurance company representing the at-fault party. Our goal is to secure a fair settlement that adequately compensates you for your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.
Negotiations can be complex and often involve back-and-forth discussions. We present a strong case outlining the facts of the accident, the extent of your injuries, and supporting evidence such as medical records and expert testimony. Ordinarily, we strive to reach a settlement agreement without resorting to litigation.
However, if the insurance company is unwilling to offer a fair settlement, we are prepared to file a lawsuit and proceed to trial. We will always fight tirelessly to protect your rights and ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
Challenges in Negotiation
Have you encountered any particular challenges during the negotiation process?
Yes, Beatrice. One common challenge is dealing with insurance companies that are reluctant to pay out substantial settlements. They may try to downplay your injuries or offer a settlement amount far below what’s reasonable. For example, I once represented a client who suffered a severe whiplash injury in a car accident. The insurance company initially offered a paltry sum, claiming the injuries were minor.
Through persistent negotiation and presenting strong medical evidence demonstrating the long-term impact of the whiplash, we were ultimately able to secure a significantly higher settlement for my client.
I firmly believe that everyone deserves proper representation when navigating the complexities of personal injury law. Studies by the Insurance Research Council have shown that claimants who are represented by attorneys receive settlements that are, on average, 3.5 times higher than those who represent themselves.
