Why You Need a New York City Injury Attorney
You have been injured in an accident. You file a claim with the insurance company hoping to receive full compensation for your losses. Typically, an insurance adjuster is then sent out to meet with you, asks you a series of questions about the accident, and takes notes, perhaps even requesting that you make a recorded statement. Shortly thereafter, you are contacted by a claims representative from the insurance company who informs you that your claim has been approved, but unfortunately, the offered amount is far less than you were hoping to receive, or, they may inform you that your claim has been denied.
This scenario is the common course of action for an accident claim, but it doesn’t have to be true in your case. If you hire a personal injury attorney from The Law Office of Richard M. Kenny, you can level the playing field between you and the insurance company by equipping yourself with a dedicated legal advocate to fight for your right to fair financial compensation. Accident victims who hire attorneys to represent their cases are routinely successful in recovering larger settlements from the insurance company than they would without legal representation. With an attorney on your side, you also have the option of taking the case to court in the event that the insurer refuses to pay a fair amount.
