I strongly advise against attempting to handle your personal injury case on your own.

First of all, the insurance companies are represented by adjusters that are trained to pay as little as possible on every claim. This means that, even you are seasoned negotiator, they will not budge when they know you cannot file a lawsuit on your own. Second, despite you knowing the facts of your case, you will not have the legal knowledge to know how to defend claims made by the insurance company (Read Most Common Car Insurance Topics).

A lawyer’s knowledge of the case law applicable to your case is very often the factor that motivates an insurance company to pay the compensation they should in your case. While I am certain that many around may suggest that you do not need a lawyer to assist you on your personal injury case, it is in your best interest to consult with one before you make your final decision. I suggest that you don’t go at it alone.

The Risks of Handling Your Own Workers’ Compensation Case (Work Injury Case)

• You could miss a deadline for filing your claim. A work injury lawyer knows all deadlines that have to be met in order to protect your claim.
• You could be sent to physicians who work for the insurance company and whose job it is to deny that your injuries are related to your work accident. A work injury lawyer can send you to a doctor who will actually treat you as a patient rather than a means to collect a paycheck.
• You could be denied medical attention and sent back to work to live in pain.
• You could live the rest of your life, with non-stop pain from your injury.
• You could lose your ability to make an honest living.
• You could lose your ability to enjoy the hobbies you love.
• You could lose your ability to sleep well at night.
• You could develop mental illness.
• You could be forced to believe that your injuries were your fault.
• You could lose out on valuable compensation that you and your family depend on to live a healthy life.
• You could never physically work again.

A worker’s compensation lawyer can help make sure that you do not have to accept what a negligent employer and their insurance want to give you to go away. If they can get away with not offering you much, they will. Do not let yourself be taken advantage of by your employer’s insurance company or their doctors.
