An Auto Accident Lawsuit in Queens

General misconceptions about automobile accident lawsuits in Queens

Through their many years of auto accident litigation, the lawyers of Latos, Latos & DiPippo have heard many misconceptions about car accident lawsuits.  We care about our clients, and we want to see them receive the compensation they deserve while keeping their rights intact.

These are some of the most common misconceptions about auto accident lawsuits in society today:

  • The insurance company made me an offer that seems okay. I think that is the most I can get:  Many people believe that they should take the offer from an insurance company because it seems like enough compensation.  The truth is that auto insurance adjustors are trained to pay out as little as possible to victims of car accidents, and some even receive bonuses and promotions for convincing victims to accept insurance payouts.  Before you accept any payout from an insurance company, it is highly recommended that you speak with a car accident lawyer in Queens who can help assess the damages you received from your auto accident.   He or she can help you decide if pursuing a Queens automobile accident lawsuit is in your best interest.
  • I will have to give up many months of my life in order to receive compensation if I decide to file a car accident lawsuit in Queens:   While a small number of auto accident lawsuits lead to lengthy court battles, the vast majority are resolved in out-of-court settlements that still deliver fair compensation to the victims of automobile accidents.
  • I can resolve my auto accident lawsuit in Queens by myself:  While it is true that you are not required by law to retain a lawyer in a Queens car accident lawsuit, doing so may put you at risk of having your rights violated by a lawyer on the opposing side or an auto insurance adjustor.  In addition, if you try to resolve your car accident lawsuit on your own, you may be losing the opportunity to recoup fair compensation for the damages you received.
  • I am guaranteed a victory if I hire a lawyer to assist me with my auto accident lawsuit in Queens: Just because you hire a lawyer to represent you in your car accident lawsuit does not mean you are guaranteed a high compensation payout.   It is true that a lawyer can help your chances, but each automobile accident case is different.  A skilled and experienced auto accident lawyer will be upfront with you about your chance of victory in a potential automobile accident lawsuit in Queens.
