Did you recently suffer from a car accident? Auto accidents are extremely expensive and common in the United States. However, everyone involved in auto accidents typically would rather avoid a trial. This video explains why accident lawsuits rarely make it to trial.
Courts cost money and litigation is expensive. Producing documents, hiring expert witnesses, and taking depositions can add up much quicker than you expect.
When a case goes to trial, it can often continue on for years. Both the plaintiff and insurance company would rather save time and money when possible. Trials are also tricky, and the outcomes cannot be predicted. Many car accident lawyers do not think you will get the best compensation from taking a chance in court. Additionally, compensation comes faster without going to trial. The longer a car accident victim goes without compensation, the more debt they can get it while waiting. If you negotiate with a car accident lawyer, you may be able to collect a settlement faster. Even if you do not go to trial, that does not mean you should always accept the first offer you receive. The lawyer can access future costs to include with your settlement.
