Personal Injury Lawyer in Nepean
When you have sustained an injury in an accident, you not only want the best treatment for your physical healing. You want the best treatment for your financial healing as well. But if you’re counting on the settlement you receive from the insurance company to provide that, you may be disappointed. Here are some things you may not know as a trusting consumer:
- Insurance adjusters are trained to negotiate. They will start at the lowest settlement amount possible. This protects the interest of the insurance company. So if you don’t counteroffer, you often end up with that low settlement figure.
- Insurance will often try to avoid paying your full claim. Again, this is about their own protection, not your fair compensation.
- What you say may be held against you. Unfortunately, what you say can be considered an admission of fault, even if it is only a courteous “I'm sorry”. An injury victim must always take care that what they say cannot be construed as an admission of fault.

We’ve Seen it All Before
Here at Barapp Law Firm and Associates, our team of personal injury lawyers in Nepean have seen it all before. Injury victims are already overwhelmed by their physical injuries, medical costs and inability to return to work. They are already worried about their financial health as well as their physical health. When the insurance company is offering a bit of financial relief, they are quick to jump at it, often to their detriment.
As personal injury lawyers, it is our business to understand the value of injury claims. And we see, far too often, that the victim is undercut in their quest to put it all behind them. Months later, when the bills are still coming in and the settlement is gone, they realize the mistake they made.
Never Accept an Insurance Claim Without Legal Advice
That is why we suggest that injury victims never accept a settlement without first consulting with a legal professional. Getting the advice of a Nepean personal injury lawyer is crucial to you having peace of mind that you are getting fair and adequate compensation for your injuries and financial losses.
Injuries are expensive. And to suffer at the hands of someone else’s negligence is unfair. But the law is on your side. If you have been the victim of negligence, you are entitled to compensation for those costs. These include :
- Medical costs, both current and future
- And, in some cases, punitive damages for emotional and physical pain
- Loss of wages
- Living expenses
