Being in a car accident is always a shocking and daunting experience, especially if you have been in a serious crash. In addition to physical harm that you have suffered in the accident, you also have to deal with the tremendous amount of emotional pressure and confusion that comes along if you are not represented by a Miami car accident attorney.
Your insurance company agent bothers you with an endless list of compromising questions. And you know why he is doing it: your insurer is trying to minimize the value of your claim, so you must remain alert and perform exhaustive mental gymnastics whenever you say anything so that your words do not get twisted and will not be used against you.
And it all happens even when you are the one who is clearly a victim. Imagine what the other driver, who is at fault for the car accident, is going through. His or her insurance company throws even tougher questions at him/her, and since that driver is in a state of shock, he or she may choose to protect his/her innocent and put the blame onto you.
Do not be surprised, but a large number of people in Miami and all across Florida do it nowadays. They may even admit their fault to you immediately after a car accident and you may even agree to settle the accident among yourselves without notifying your insurance companies. But there is always a risk that this at-fault driver will not hold up his/her end of the bargain.
Either because the at-fault driver was pressured by his/her family, lawyer, insurance company, or he/she simply decided to absolve himself/herself of liability for the accident, it happens way too often. At-fault motorists may attempt to lie their way out of responsibility to put the blame onto you, making you partially or fully responsible for the car accident you were not at fault for.
In that case, you have no choice but to seek legal help of an experienced car accident attorney in Miami at the Dante Law Firm, P.A. Not seeking legal representation in such situations rarely ends well for the victim, as you may end up being held liable for a car accident you did not cause.
Let’s face the reality here: we are not living in some illusory perfect world full of roses, unicorns, rainbows, and pink fluffy rabbits. People lie, and there is absolutely no guarantee that the driver who hit your vehicle and caused the car accident is going to tell his/her insurance company the actual truth or that he/she will uphold his/her promise and compensate for your injuries and damages without notifying insurance companies or lawyers.
If there were no witnesses, you did not document the scene of the car accident and you did not file a personal injury or property damage claim in a timely manner, you are in big trouble. The at-fault motorist may end up successfully shifting the blame onto you, and you will not be able to do anything about it.
The only option you have left to avoid being held responsible for a car accident you did not cause is to hire a Miami car accident attorney from the Dante Law Firm, P.A. With the help of a skilled lawyer, you can build a strong legal case, establish liability, document your injuries and damages, evaluate the dollar value of your damages, and hold the at-fault party responsible for causing the accident.
