Steps Involved in Filing a Personal Injury Claim

The claims process typically starts with documenting details of the incident and other forms of evidence in an insurance claim. From there, an attorney will submit the claim to the appropriate insurance company for review. The documentation that goes into a claim can include medical records, police reports, witness statements, and any other evidence supporting your claim. Once the claim is submitted, your attorney will likely have to negotiate with insurers to reach a fair settlement offer. Our Bay City personal injury attorneys are highly skilled negotiators. We’ll work hard to convince insurers that you deserve a fair payment. While the majority of claims are settled out-of-court, we may need to take your case to trial if the insurer fails to offer a sufficient amount of compensation. If that happens, you’ll be glad you hired the seasoned trial attorneys from Laborde Earles. Our team will present evidence, convincing legal arguments, and witness testimonies to convince the court you deserve a favorable verdict.

  • Cost of medications, assistive medical devices, and rehabilitative therapy services
  • Property damage expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Decreased earning ability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Loss of enjoyment of life

If you’ve suffered serious injuries in an industrial plant accident, it’s important to have an attorney who can assess your current and future losses.
