Higher average settlement when represented by an lawyer
Hiring a car accident lawyer could have a major impact on how much compensation you recover. A study by the Insurance Research Council (IRC) reported that for specific auto-accident-related injuries, the average insurance payouts were 3.5 times higher for individuals who hired an attorney.1 It is worth noting that the IRC is a research organization created and funded by the insurance industry.
After your accident, it’s important to remember that the insurance adjuster’s goal is to settle your case for as little as possible. If you are not represented, the insurance company may offer you far less than the value of your claim. An attorney can help determine how much your car accident case is worth and when the insurance company adjuster knows your claim is being handled by a personal injury attorney, you are likely to receive a much higher settlement offer.

Auto Accident Frequently Asked Questions
Should I hire a lawyer for a car accident?
For minor accidents involving property damage only, you might get by just fine without a lawyer. However, if there is any injury involved, you should contact a lawyer ASAP.
The insurance companies will usually try to take advantage of your situation by getting you to agree to a settlement by phone before you’ve left the scene of the accident.
Contacting an auto accident attorney right away can help protect your rights and increase your settlement.
What is the average settlement for a car accident?
Settlement amounts vary widely based on several factors. Some studies show that the average settlement for a minor car accident is between $20,000 and $30,000. This is for collisions that usually involve injuries.
If your injury is more severe, your settlement may be higher but could be limited by available insurance coverage.
How do I choose an attorney after a car accident?
You should take the time to interview several car accident lawyers near you. Ask them how many accident cases they have handled and how much of their practice is spent on auto accident cases.
Make sure the attorney has experience in litigation so he can take your case to court, if needed. Oftentimes, the threat of litigation is the only thing that makes insurance companies pay fair value.
How much do car accident lawyers charge?
We work on a contingent fee basis which means we don’t charge you anything unless we win.
Just like other contingent fee lawyers, our compensation is typically 33.33 percent or one-third of whatever we recover for our clients.
Since studies show that people represented by car accident lawyers receive average settlements of 3.5 times more than those without attorneys, hiring counsel is something you should seriously consider.
