Legal Representation After a Car Accident
Experiencing a car accident is overwhelming and stressful. Even minor accidents eat up time and create frustration as you navigate insurance claims. At JMH Law, we understand the complexities of such situations and offer professional legal representation to help you navigate through these challenges. Our car accident lawyers provide comprehensive support, ensuring that you receive the compensation you deserve for your injuries, damages, and losses. We have extensive experience in dealing with insurance companies, gathering evidence, and negotiating settlements to maximize your claim's value.
No Loose Ends
What do we mean by no loose ends? Unpaid medical bills; hospital bills paid by some health insurance carriers; medical treatment paid for by medicare; and, car accidents involving minors all involve complicated legal issues that, if not properly handled, can result in your car crash settlement being nullified or significantly diminished. The following are legal issues that often come up in car accident injury settlements:
Healthcare Liens: Medical providers can file a lien against your personal injury claim for any unpaid medical bills. These liens can complicate, delay and reduce your settlement. We know how to resolve these liens and maximize your recovery.
Minor Settlements:Â Settlements for minor children who have been injured in a car accident must be approved by a court if the car wreck settlement exceeds $35,000.00.
Medicare: Medicare has what is known as a super-lien in any personal injury case, including car accidents. This means that they do not have to notify you of their lien rights and they, by law, are entitled to be repaid for all medical bills they have paid for related to car accident injuries. Â
Union Health Plans: Union health plans also have to be considered in car wreck settlements. Under a federal law called ERISA, union health plans have the power to recover money from your personal injury settlement for any medical bills the health plan has paid related to a car wreck.
Understanding Car Accident Claims
Navigating the aftermath of a car accident can be complex and overwhelming. Overall, your attorney can guide you through your agreement with an insurance company, particularly if it becomes complicated or contentious. Your attorney can step in if you’re denied a claim for coverage that you’ve paid for or before the issue has been investigated. If a provider fails to pay the claim in a timely manner, give you a proper explanation, or if the other party is uninsured, it’s crucial to have an attorney at your side to make sure you’re not being taken advantage of.
Car accident claims can be intricate, requiring a deep understanding of legal processes and insurance policies. Our team at JMH Law guides you through every step of your claim. When you hire us, we take over dealing with the negligent driver’s insurance company and will handle negotiating with insurers and, if necessary, litigating in court. We focus on ensuring that all aspects of your case are meticulously handled, providing you with peace of mind and the best possible outcome.
