Atlanta Insurance Settlements

Insurance companies often base their willingness to pay your claim - and how much to offer - based on whether the Company believes it will win or lose your case at trial.

Far more personal injury claims settle than go to trial. Perhaps the biggest reason for this is that most people and Companies do not look forward to going through a lengthy and potentially expensive jury trial.

These facts are well known to insurance companies, and insurers often use the cost and inconvenience of trial in an effort to avoid paying their fair share for your injury and damages.

Because we focus mainly on personal injury cases, we are familiar with the largest insurance companies in Georgia and how they evaluate injury cases. Additionally, we regularly conduct jury trials and we constantly perform settlement and jury verdict research. Constant research and knowledge of how insurance companies think provides us with an informed basis for evaluating your case and allows us to achieve excellent settlement and trial results.

Our philosophy is to demonstrate to the insurance company that we are willing to take your case to trial if settlement negotiations fail to achieve a fair offer. We have a track record of thoroughly preparing our cases for negotiation and jury trial. When necessary and called-for, and with our client’s agreement, we also utilize ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) methods such as mediation and arbitration to help resolve cases.

In any event, we will never settle your case without your full authority and without a thorough discussion of whether it makes sense to accept a settlement offer or proceed to trial.

We keep you involved in the settlement and trial process. Before any settlement discussions are entered into, we will let you know how much you will receive from a settlement after attorney fees and costs and medical bills, liens, and insurance reimbursements are paid. Please feel free to call us with any questions you may have about how insurance companies view your injury case.
