Known as the “Friendly Giant” of the insurance industry, Liberty Mutual offers a range of products to suit every budget. But, like other big players in the field, they make billions of dollars in revenue annually—and when it comes to settling claims, they won’t hesitate to lowball you to save a few bucks.

While it may be tempting to trust their friendly adjusters to handle your claim fairly and efficiently, it’s important to remember that, ultimately, it’s a business looking to protect its profits.

And as a consumer, you must look out for your best interests. To help you do that, our Brooklyn personal injury lawyers will walk you through how to protect yourself and your claim. By staying informed and being vigilant, you can ensure that you are not taken advantage of  after an accident.

What to Expect When Handling a Liberty Mutual Injury Claim

Handling a Liberty Mutual injury claim can be a complex and often frustrating process. It’s important to be aware of what to expect and to be prepared for the challenges that may arise.

Here are some key things to keep in mind when dealing with a Liberty Mutual injury claim:

  • Initial contact — Once you’ve reported your claim to Liberty Mutual, you can expect to receive a call from an adjuster within a few days. They will ask questions about the accident, injuries, and other relevant details.
  • Investigation — Liberty Mutual will conduct its own investigation of the accident, which may include reviewing police reports, interviewing witnesses, and examining medical records. They’ll try to use this information to minimize or reject your claim.
  • Settlement offer — Once Liberty Mutual has completed its investigation and reviewed your medical records, they will make a settlement offer. It’s important to carefully review the offer and consult with an attorney before accepting, as the initial offer may not fully cover your damages.

Overall, dealing with a Liberty Mutual injury claim can be a challenging process. It’s important to be patient and seek the guidance of an experienced attorney who can help you navigate the claims process and protect your rights.

How to Prepare a Solid Injury Claim

Preparing a solid injury claim can increase your chances of obtaining fair compensation for your damages.

Here are some tips to help you prepare a strong injury claim:

  • Seek medical attention immediately after the accident, even if you don’t think you’ve been seriously injured.
  • Document the accident by taking photos of the scene, your injuries, and any property damage.
  • Obtain contact information for any witnesses to the accident.
  • Keep track of all medical bills, receipts for expenses related to the accident, and any lost wages due to time off work.
  • Don’t give a recorded statement to the insurance company until you have consulted with an attorney.
  • Consult with a personal injury attorney who can help you navigate the claims process and negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf.
  • Don’t settle for less than you deserve, and make sure that any settlement offer fully covers your present and future damages.

By following these tips, you can prepare a solid injury claim and increase your chances of obtaining the compensation you deserve.

Why You Need to Call a Lawyer Before the Insurance Company

It’s common for individuals to contact their insurance company first after being involved in an accident. However, it’s important to remember that insurance companies are businesses, and their primary goal is to protect their bottom line. This means that they may not have your best interests in mind when handling your claim.

By contacting a personal injury lawyer before your insurance company, you can ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive fair compensation for your damages. An experienced attorney can help you navigate the complex legal system and negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf.

A lawyer can also provide you with valuable advice on how to proceed with your claim, including what documentation to gather, how to communicate with the insurance company, and what to do if your claim is denied or you are offered an inadequate settlement.

Consulting with a personal injury lawyer before contacting your insurance company can help you avoid common pitfalls and increase your chances of obtaining fair compensation for your injuries and damages.

One cannot get the justice they deserve if they are paralised by ignorance and fear. This is putting in perspective how I felt after my accident and the steps I needed to take to gain redress. In my quest for justice, the Held, Held and Held law firm took away my fear, replaced my ignorance with knowledge and skillfully led me to justice.

This law firm was recommended to me by a friend to help me with a slip and fall I endured. I found the entire Held, Held & Held staff to be extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and were very up front with me about the strengths and weaknesses of my case.

I am a former New York State Judge. My wife was severely injured in an automobile accident. The Held firm took the case when others said, “There’s nothing here.” We settled for a sizeable amount due to the care, hard-work and diligence of all members of this firm.

This office was awesome. The lawyers and staff were so helpful with all my questions and getting me a great settlement. They always got back to me and they actually cared about me and my case. I never usually write a review, but I felt like these guys deserved a positive review for all of their efforts.

Walked in for a consultation regarding a car accident several months ago. I was injured and was unsure what my rights were and what I could do about it. My first impressions were nothing short of amazing! After only a few minutes I met with a lawyer.
