Should You Handle Your Car Accident Claim Without a Lawyer?
Handling your own car accident claim exposes you to costly mistakes. Unrepresented claimants commonly settle before their injuries are fully diagnosed, give recorded statements that insurers later use to reduce the claim, undervalue future medical costs, or miss Washington’s statute of limitations entirely. Each of these errors is difficult to undo.
A lawyer protects you from making these mistakes while building the strongest possible case for compensation. Most car accident lawyers in Lacey, including Jacobs and Jacobs, work on a contingency fee. You pay nothing upfront and no legal fees at all unless your attorney recovers compensation for you. Before you make any statements or accept any offers, have a lawyer take over your claim and deal with the insurer on your behalf.
What Causes Collisions on Lacey Streets and Highways?
While every car accident occurs under different circumstances, the vast majority stem from preventable driver errors, including:
- Distracted driving
- Speeding
- Aggressive driving
- Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Running red lights and stop signs
- Following too closely
- Unsafe lane changes
- Drowsy driving
- Failing to yield the right of way
Navigating the Insurance Claim Process in Washington
Washington is a fault state, meaning the at-fault driver’s insurer is responsible for paying your damages. You can expect that insurer to request a recorded statement, seek broad access to your medical history, and make a quick settlement offer that falls short of your actual losses.
Jacobs and Jacobs steps in between you and the insurance company at every stage. The adjuster communicates with our attorneys rather than with you directly. We present the adjuster with robust evidence of the other party’s fault and a thorough record of your damages, then advocate for a fair settlement that meets all your needs. If an insurer remains unreasonable, our experienced trial lawyers are ready to present your case before a Washington jury.
