Re: Offered Settlement for Soft Tissue Accident...Can I get More?

An insurance company will not give you the full value of your case. Furthermore, you should not settle unless you are sure your injuries have been fully taken care of.

I suggest you give me a call at 818-427-6246 if you are in the Southern California area and I will give you a free consultation.

Generally speaking, liability carriers in cases like yours do not offer unrepresented parties the true value of their claims. The full value of your claims should be evaluated on the basis of the true, nature extent and scope of your damages.

The amount of your medical bills, loss of wages, length of treatment, type of treatment, pain and suffereing, etc. should all be taken into consideration in evaluating settlement value.

If you would like to discuss your matter, please conact me for free consultation

Given that this is a rear end collision liability is probably not an issue.

The costs of your medical bills multiplied by a number from 1 to 5 depending upon the severity of the injury and the manner in which it was caused.

Also any lost wages, physical property damage, and your car damage should all be compensated.

300 dollars hardly sounds fair for the vehicle. i would be thinking of demanding at least the fair market value of the vehicle.

You cannot really negotiate the medical portion of this claim until you have been released from the doctor and are feeling better because once you agree you sign a release from any further liability.

i would talk to an attorney in your area. Good luck to you.
