For an individual who is harmed through the fault or negligence of another party, personal injury settlements provide a means by which to recover lost funds, secure appropriate treatment, and limit further suffering associated with the injury. Most insurance companies will offer personal injury settlements almost immediately, as it is often far less expensive to settle out of court. In many cases, the personal injury settlements are offered immediately following the injury-even while the injured party is still in the hospital-in the hopes that an attorney has not yet been consulted. Injured persons may accept personal injury settlements that are far below the true value of the injury. It is critical that injured persons and their families not accept any personal injury settlements without contacting an attorney to discuss the amount of the settlement offered.
