Hello Sir,

     A large portion of my practice is dealing with car crashes and personal injury cases like yours.  Most of my clients come to my office after attempting to deal with the opposing insurance company on their own, and I hear stories like yours all too often.  As a general rule, insurance companies will attempt to resolve an open claim for as little money as possible.  In my experience, that usually involves dragging the matter out for a considerable period of time.  My guess is that the reason this is done is because an insurance company has the financial backing to delay for a long period of time, while everyday people generally do not.  What I have seen is that this often forces the individual into the difficult decision as to whether to accept a lesser amount than they are entitled, but receive it sooner, or to wait to obtain the true amount of money to which they are due.

     My office deals with cases like yours on a daily basis; sometimes it is better to have an attorney involved.  If you find that you have reached your limits of frustration with the insurance company, we would be happy to help you.  Please feel free to call our office at 919-321-6569 to set up a free case evaluation, or just email us at Help@Kisala-law.com.  We represent people all throughout the state of North Carolina.  It has been my experience that my office has been consistently able to obtain larger amounts for our clients than any of the previous offer made by the insurance company without an attorney involved because of our ability to negotiate as well as litigate if necessary.  In my experience, even after paying for the representation, my clients end up in better financial position than they were in before they hired us.

I hope this helps!
