Insurance Companies Are Not On Your Side
Insurance Companies Are Businesses—Not Advocates for Accident Victims
After an accident, it’s natural to assume the insurance company will fairly compensate you for your injuries and losses. Unfortunately, insurance companies are businesses whose goal is to protect their bottom line. Every dollar they pay in a settlement affects their profits, which is why many adjusters are trained to minimize claims whenever possible.
At The Law Office of Shawn C. Brown, P.C., we’ve seen firsthand how insurance companies often attempt to settle cases quickly for less than they may be worth. Before accepting any offer or giving a recorded statement, it’s important to understand your legal rights.
Common Tactics Insurance Companies May Use
Requesting a Recorded Statement
An insurance adjuster may ask for a recorded statement shortly after your accident. While they may say it’s simply part of the claims process, your statements can later become part of the evidence in your case.
Before providing a recorded statement, consider speaking with an attorney who can explain your rights and help you avoid unintentionally saying something that could be misunderstood.
Offering a Quick Settlement
Some accident victims receive settlement offers before they fully understand the extent of their injuries.
While a quick check may seem appealing when medical bills are piling up, accepting an early settlement often means giving up your right to pursue additional compensation later—even if your condition worsens.
Downplaying Your Injuries
Insurance companies sometimes argue that injuries are:
- Pre-existing
- Minor
- Unrelated to the accident
- Not serious enough for continued treatment
Medical documentation and experienced legal representation can help present the full extent of your injuries.
Delaying Your Claim
Some claims experience delays while the insurance company requests additional documentation, medical records, or investigations.
Although every case is different, unnecessary delays can create additional financial stress for injured individuals and their families.
Attempting to Shift Fault
Texas follows a modified comparative negligence system. In some situations, an insurance company may argue that you were partially responsible for the accident.
Reducing your percentage of fault can significantly impact the amount of compensation you may recover under Texas law.
Let Shawn Brown Law Handle the Insurance Company
While you focus on healing, our legal team can communicate with insurance adjusters, gather evidence, review medical records, and negotiate on your behalf.
If the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, we are prepared to pursue your case through litigation when appropriate.
How Much Is My Personal Injury Case Worth?
One of the first questions we hear is:
“How much is my case worth?”
The honest answer is that every case is unique.
The value of a personal injury claim depends on numerous factors, including:
Medical Expenses
Your current and future medical costs may include:
- Emergency room visits
- Ambulance transportation
- Hospital stays
- Surgery
- Physical therapy
- Chiropractic treatment
- Prescription medications
- Specialist care
- Rehabilitation
- Future medical treatment
Lost Income
If your injuries prevented you from working, you may be entitled to recover:
- Lost wages
- Lost overtime
- Missed bonuses
- Sick leave used
- Vacation time used
Loss of Future Earning Capacity
Some injuries permanently affect a person’s ability to perform their job or earn the same income they earned before the accident.
This can be particularly significant for individuals working in construction, healthcare, transportation, oilfield operations, and other physically demanding professions.
Pain and Suffering
Not every loss is reflected on a medical bill.
Texas law may allow compensation for physical pain, emotional distress, inconvenience, mental anguish, and reduced quality of life, depending on the circumstances of the case.
Permanent Disabilities
Some injuries change lives forever.
Examples include:
- Paralysis
- Brain injuries
- Amputations
- Permanent nerve damage
- Severe burns
- Chronic pain
These injuries often require extensive future medical care and long-term planning.
Property Damage
In motor vehicle accident cases, compensation may also include damage to your vehicle and other personal property.
Every Case Is Different
No two accidents are exactly alike.
The value of a claim depends on factors such as:
- Liability
- Severity of injuries
- Medical treatment
- Insurance coverage
- Long-term prognosis
- Evidence available
- Expert testimony
Don’t Guess What Your Case Is Worth
Before accepting any settlement offer, speak with an experienced San Antonio personal injury lawyer who can evaluate your case and explain your legal options.
Frequently Asked Questions
We handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay no attorney’s fees unless we recover compensation for you.
Texas law generally imposes deadlines for filing personal injury claims. Because exceptions can apply, it’s important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident.
Texas follows modified comparative negligence rules. Depending on the facts of your case and your percentage of responsibility, you may still be able to recover compensation.
Many initial settlement offers do not account for future medical treatment, ongoing pain, lost earning capacity, or other damages. Before accepting any offer, consider having it reviewed by an attorney.
While not every accident requires legal representation, serious injuries, disputed liability, or significant insurance issues often benefit from experienced legal guidance.
Depending on your insurance policy and the facts of your accident, there may be other avenues for pursuing compensation. We can help review your available options.
Many personal injury cases resolve through negotiated settlements. However, if a fair agreement cannot be reached, our legal team is prepared to advocate for you in court.
Every case is different. Some claims resolve in a matter of months, while others involving significant injuries or disputed liability may take longer.
