What if the insurance company offers me a check right away?

A: Before you accept anything — or sign anything — from an insurance company, be sure that you are aware of your legal rights and options. Accepting a check may mean that you are giving up your right to sue later on if you need extra medical care or you have to miss a lot of work. Consult an attorney before you negotiate with the insurance company.  Remember, however, that it has been proven that a personal injury attorney consistently obtains a better settlement than the average layperson.  So, call Lever & Stolzenberg today.
