Auto Accident
An automobile accident happens every 5 seconds in the United States. This means that the chances of you being in an accident at some point in your life, is highly likely. In 2013, there were 742 automobile accidents here in Twin Falls. Of those accidents, there were 318 people injured, and 7 fatalities.(Numbers are from the Idaho Transportation Department.)
Being in an accident does not necessarily mean that you were responsible for the accident. If you need help with your insurance claims, or want to seek damages…then I am here to help you.
Did you know that insurance agencies CAN use tactics that are unethical when reviewing your claim? Here are some common tactics that they may use against you:
- Offer a settlement that does not begin to cover all of your expenses.
- They may try to deny your claim for an invalid reason.
- While filing your claim, they may delay the process.
- They may also continue to ask for the same information again and again.
- They overwhelm you with unnecessary paperwork.
Here are the average costs of automobile accidents, as of 2012:
- Accidents involving fatalities– $1,410,000
- Accidents that caused serious injuries resulting in a disability–$78,900 (does not cover the cost of living with a long-term or short-term disability)
- Accidents not resulting in disabling injuries, and property damages–$8,900
