Are You Having Trouble With An Insurance Adjuster?

If you have ever been injured or had property damaged in a car accident then you have probably dealt with an insurance adjuster. What do you do if you can’t come to terms with the adjuster? You actually have several options. First, you can request that your injury or property damage claim be assigned to a new adjuster. The chances of that happening are pretty slim though.

Next, if you feel you are being mistreated you can ask to speak to the adjuster’s supervisor. If the adjuster is not giving your claim the attention it deserves, a call to his supervisor may help.

Why do you think it is that adjusters can be so difficult to deal with sometimes? One of the adjusters settlement methods is to wear you down. For instance, your goal is to negotiate a fair settlement to compensate you for your injuries. The adjuster on the other hand will prolong the settlement or continue to offer unreasonable settlement terms. The adjuster is at an unfair advantage because he has the money and you need the money. The adjuster is hoping that you will settle for the unreasonable offer so you can get the claim behind you.

You should contact an attorney to help if you encounter any of the above situations. An attorney can get more money for you and handle the hassle of working with the adjuster. Pbk (205)912-8245
