Why You Should Work with CCK After a Narragansett, RI Car Accident
You are not required to hire a lawyer after a car accident in Narragansett, RI. Because of this, many residents either never think to do so or do not believe the benefits to having legal representation outweigh the costs. However, the legal team at CCK handles your case from start to finish, taking the burden off your shoulders and allowing you to focus on your recovery.
Our Lawyers Can Help with Your Most Pressing Questions and Concerns
The days and weeks that follow a car accident with injuries can be a whirlwind. When you are not at the doctor, the hospital, or receiving therapy, you are probably making body shop appointments, dealing with insurance paperwork, and, if you have them, filing for short-term or long-term disability benefits.
So, it can be difficult to find time to determine which questions you should be asking to recover your losses from the car accident.
We can help you determine the answers to the following:
- How will I pay my medical bills?
- Will I get compensation for my time away from work?
- What happens if I need continuing medical care in the future?
- How will I pay to get my car repaired or replaced?
- What if the other driver is arguing that I am liable?
- Should I accept the insurance company’s settlement offer?
Once we have answered all the relevant questions, we can create a plan to address the things most important to you.
Our Legal Staff Takes the Post-Accident Stress Off Your Shoulders
While our attorneys are busy working to make sure you receive full compensation, our support staff helps with other issues that invariably come up after a car accident.
The days and weeks following a car accident are stressful and, often, painful. As you try to recover as best you can from your physical injuries, you must also tend to financial and legal concerns.
At Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick, we have a support staff in place whose specific job function is to take some of these concerns off your shoulders and put them on theirs so that you can focus on your recovery.
Whenever you have a question, concern, or want an update on your claim, a support staff member is here to help you.
We Help You Communicate with the Insurance Company
Dealing with the insurance company can be the most stressful thing you do after an accident. Many insurance companies operate for profit and the adjusters are working to pay you the least amount of money possible. Speak with us before you agree to give the insurance company a recorded statement. You do not want to mistakenly agree to something that could unfairly limit your claim. We can either help you prep for the statement or even take part in it with you.
Our Legal Team Fights to Maximize Your Damages
Do not settle for the insurance company’s quick offer without speaking to us first. It might sound enticing because it gets you paid fast, but you might be leaving money on the table.
How to Maximize Compensation After a Car Accident
We help our clients maximize their economic and noneconomic damages. We may be able to help you recover compensation for:
- Your current and future medical bills;
- The income from work you are losing while you recover;
- Money to compensate you for pain and suffering, emotional anguish, and loss of consortium.
You Pay No Upfront Costs
Many people do not obtain legal help after an accident because they think they cannot afford it, but this is not the case. Many personal injury lawyers — including those at CCK — work on contingency which means you have an entire legal team working for you, with no risk on your part. If we do not win your case, you do not pay us for our time — it is as simple as that.
