Dealing with Insurance Companies
If a negligent vehicle operator causes injuries but is not insured, he or she may be required to pay for the damages resulting from the accident. If that person is covered by insurance, his or her insurance company will provide an attorney and pay the damages that the injured person proves are caused by the accident. However, insurance companies fight injury cases vigorously because they want to avoid paying damages. Unless the injured person can prove the other driver was negligent, that the negligence actually caused the accident, and the injuries were caused by the accident, an insurance company will not pay. Even when liability for the accident is clear, insurance companies will dispute the amount of damages and the injured person must prove not only the existence of the damages but the extent of the damages. Unless the accident victim can prove how much damage was suffered, the insurance company will pay much less than the damages are worth. An experienced Alaska auto accident lawyer, Elliott T. Dennis will not only put together the facts with which to prove the negligence, but he will gather all the applicable information - insurance coverage, medical records, wage losses - and assemble the damage evidence in a manner which will usually persuade the insurance company to pay the maximum reasonable compensation for the injuries suffered. If an out-of-court settlement is not possible, then a jury trial will result.
