El Monte Auto Accident Lawyer | San Gabriel Valley
Someone was careless, and you were injured.
They have insurance, and that insurance owes you three things: your vehicle repaired or replaced, your medical bills paid, and money for your pain and suffering.
The adjuster's job is to pay you as little as possible. Adjusters are trained negotiators, some of them lawyers, who settle claims every day, and they are very good at it. What you are owed is not about fairness to them. It's just business.
They will call you, usually before you or your doctors know how bad your injury really is. Every question is designed to get you to say something that shrinks or kills your claim. And once you settle, there is no going back.
You have every right to talk to an El Monte auto accident lawyer before you talk to them.
If you must talk to them first, please don't agree to be recorded.
Personal injury ads run all day on TV and radio, every one of them shouting about a huge settlement. Huge settlements come from life-altering, catastrophic injuries. It's unlikely you will get 5 million dollars for a broken leg. Something to ponder: every injury lawyer we know takes a percentage of the settlement, plus expenses. Someone has to pay for those commercials. We don't run expensive TV or radio commercials.
So how do you find out if you have a good case?
Call Brad. We'll go through the accident and the injury and tell you where your case is strong and where it isn't. Do you have a case? What is it worth? It's a big decision, and talking to Brad doesn't cost you a penny.
Insurance companies look at numbers, not pain and suffering. Brad prepares every case for a jury, and that's why most of them settle. One carrier tried to lowball us. Brad didn't argue. He set the case for trial. They settled a few days before it began. Your results may vary, but our strategy does not.
Honestly, a fender bender where no one was hurt is not a case for any lawyer. But if you were actually injured and someone else caused it, getting you paid for your lost work, your pain and suffering, and your property damage is how Brad Hayes Law earns its fee. We are only paid out of the settlement if we win. But we can't win if you don't call.
