A Guide to Car Accident Victim Compensation

Posted on

If another driver causes you to be injured in a car accident, you can face considerable damages, which makes obtaining the compensation that you are entitled to paramount. Working closely with an experienced Wisconsin car accident attorney can help.

The Compensation You Are Owed

Being injured by someone else’s negligence is difficult, and the compensation you need to reach your fullest recovery must address all of the following categories:

  • The cost of your medical care
  • The amount of your lost earnings
  • Your physical and emotional pain and suffering

Obtaining Just Compensation

In order to obtain just compensation, you will have to file a claim with the at-fault driver’s insurance provider. This process, however, can be exceptionally difficult. The insurance company is invested in keeping your settlement low in order to keep its profits high, and toward this end, it may employ any of the following tactics:

  • Making an early settlement offer that fails to address your full range of damages
  • Denying your claim from the outset
  • Complicating and/or prolonging the claim’s process
  • Questioning the extent of your injuries
  • Attempting to shift blame toward you
