Insurance Settlement Offers: Insights from MANEY | GORDON Trial Lawyers

When you’re faced with an insurance settlement offer after a personal injury, the decision to accept can feel overwhelming. At MANEY | GORDON Trial Lawyers, we understand the intricacies of these offers and the impact they can have on your recovery journey. Our experience and recognition, including our regional ranking by US News and World Report in Medical Malpractice Law and Personal Injury Litigation, set us apart. Let’s explore why rushing into an agreement with the insurance company might not be in your best interest.

Understanding the Insurance Company’s Offer

Insurance companies are in the business of minimizing payouts to maximize their profits. When they present an initial settlement offer, it often falls short of covering the full extent of your damages, losses, and future needs. Before making any decisions, consider consulting with a seasoned legal advisor who can provide a comprehensive evaluation of your claim’s true value.

This accolade reflects our firm’s dedication to legal expertise and client advocacy.

Factors to Consider Before Accepting a Settlement

Several critical factors should influence your decision regarding a settlement offer. These include the total cost of your medical treatments, the impact of your injuries on your ability to work, and the emotional toll of the accident. Additionally, understanding the 2-year statute of limitations in Florida is crucial, as it dictates the timeframe within which you can file a claim.

Navigating the negotiation process with insurance companies can be daunting. Our team at MANEY | GORDON Trial Lawyers is skilled in these negotiations, ensuring that our clients’ rights and interests are vigorously represented.
