Understanding Insurance Company Tactics

Our Springfield personal injury attorney is often questioned about tactics that insurers might use to try to convince you to accept a reduced settlement. These might include the following.

Lengthy Delays

These tactics can include:

  • Failing to return phone calls or to communicate
  • Asking for a little information at a time or
  • Transferring the claim to a different adjuster.

Intimidation Techniques

The company might try to:

  • Threaten to close the file.
  • Discourage you from hiring a lawyer or
  • Give you fake deadlines to accept a claim.

Further tactics might include deception, low offers or failing to tell you about your coverage. If you need to retain the services of a Springfield personal injury attorney, contact the law firm of McCarthy Rowden & Baker.
