How can hiring HLH increase your settlement offer from the insurance company?  Isn’t it possible for you to handle your personal injury claim alone without hiring an attorney?

Of course a person is free to represent themselves and attempt to settle a personal injury claim after a car accident without the representation of a lawyer.  It may seem like the easiest way to resolve your injury claim, and the insurance adjuster will tell you “why pay a lawyer, you’ll get to keep more without one.”

This simply isn’t true.  The fact is insurance companies always offer a lower settlement up front.  Hiring an HLH injury attorney with decades of proven skill and trial experience won’t cost you a thing out of pocket.  We work on a contingency fee basis.  We handle all of the work of dealing with the insurance company and aggressively standing up for your injury claim.  This saves you a lot of time and makes you a lot of money.  How?

A recent study by the Insurance Research Council (IRC) shows that payouts were much higher when the injured claimant hired an attorney.  This study was based upon 6,000 injured people who were injured in a car accident.  The study was designed to identify the types of injuries they had to endure, the treatment provided, the cost of that treatment and the settlement they ultimately received.  One fact the study made quite clear in the Insurance industry’s own study was those represented by an attorney received 40% more on average in their settlements than those who didn’t have a lawyer.

How can hiring HLH increase your settlement offer from the insurance company?  A separate report by the IRS unexpectedly shows an amazing statistic – 85% of all settlements paid by the insurance companies in that study for bodily injuries were paid to victims who were represented by attorneys.  The results in that study concluded those who were represented by attorneys were paid settlements which were more than three times higher than settlements paid to claimants without a lawyer.
