How Do Insurance Companies Work?

The most important point to remember is that providing insurance coverage is a business. The more insurance companies are able to maximize the money they take in while minimizing the money they pay out, the more they will improve their bottom line. This is why insurance companies have trained case examiners, brigades of lawyers, money and vast resources aimed at ensuring that you receive as little money as possible. Their most common approach is to settle your case fast by contacting you almost immediately following your accident, telling you that they know from experience that your injuries should heal in a few weeks, and offering you far less money than you are due. Don’t fall for it. Get an attorney.
