How an Attorney from Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD Can Help You

Even if you have been in an accident before, it is hard to prepare for the aftermath of a serious crash. If it is your first car accident, you might be at a total loss, wondering how you will ever tackle the items on your ever-expanding to-do list. But help from a CCK car accident attorney is just a phone call away.

Once we get started on your case, we handle the following:

Conducting a Full Investigation

We examine the details of your crash and gather the evidence needed to build a case. We might obtain the accident report, surveillance video, photos of the accident, or statements from eyewitnesses.

Identifying the Responsible Parties

Liability in every accident case is not cut-and-dried. In some cases, multiple parties are at-fault. We will hold any potential liable parties responsible.

Determining a Value for Your Claim and Negotiating with the Insurance Company

What are damages in a car accident?
We also determine how much your claim might be worth. In almost every accident case, you will be entitled to one or more of the following damages:

• Current and future medical bills: These could include emergency transport costs, surgery costs, medications, physical therapy, emergency room visits, and copays, among others.
• Lost wages and reduced ability to earn: You may be entitled to both current and future lost wages. If you needed to take time off work to recover or attend doctor’s appointments, you deserve compensation for that time off. You also deserve compensation if an accident-related disability forces you to retire or keeps you from returning full-time.
• Pain and suffering: Many accident victims experience much pain and suffering after a crash. You deserve compensation for it. We will review your medical records and listen to how your accident has affected you to determine the value of your pain and suffering.
• Emotional damages: Car accidents can have substantial emotional effects, ranging from anxiety to post-traumatic stress disorder. We can use your therapy bills and records to prove your emotional damages and determine to what they might entitle you.

Once we have determined what your damages are worth, we demand that value from the insurance company. Unfortunately, many insurance companies operate with one goal in mind: to save money. In many cases, this means offering you much less than your demand. We fight tooth and nail to get the insurer to maximize your recovery.

Helping You with Paperwork

After a car accident, you have a lot on your plate. But if you have been injured, you should be focusing on getting better, not on trying to understand and fill out insurance paperwork.

Why the Insurance Company Does Not Want You to Call Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick

Insurance companies often do what they can to minimize their own payouts after a crash. The last thing the insurance company wants is for you to call a lawyer in Middletown, RI. A lawyer can help you determine what your claim might be worth and often find damages and insurance coverage that you never knew existed. In some cases, this could double or even triple your damages demand.

That is why insurers often call accident victims shortly after the crash, sometimes as soon as 24 to 48 hours after, to offer to cut you a check. Their goal is to entice you to take their offer before you have determined your prognosis or discussed your case value with an attorney.

Never accept a settlement without running it by a member of the CCK car accident legal team. You could end up leaving thousands on the table.
