But what most of us don’t know is that the liability insurance company on the hook for the property damage and personal injuries suffered in the wreck begins to formulate its defense almost immediately.

Insurance companies are for-profit corporations that make money two ways: 1) by collecting premiums; and 2) by paying the smallest claims possible. As a result, every insurance company has developed a system of claims adjusting that is designed to minimize its exposure to your liability claim in a car wreck.

So how do you protect yourself?  In the immediate aftermath of even a seemingly minor automobile collision, it is imperative that you contact a law firm with substantial experience representing individuals and families who have been harmed in car wrecks. Our law firm, Chappell Smith & Arden, P.A., has litigated automobile accidents for over thirty years and boasts a substantial record of success in that area of practice.
