Avoiding Mistakes that Cost You Money

Every insurance company is trying to pay you as little money as possible. They do this by denying claims or paying you less than you deserve. If you do or say the wrong thing, you can give them ammunition that they will use to underpay or deny your claim.

The legal team of Kennedy, Johnson, Schwab & Roberge, LLC, will take steps to prevent you from making costly mistakes. The sooner you contact us, the sooner we can start giving you advice. We will advise you who to speak with and what you should and shouldn’t say during those conversations.

We will also collect evidence on your behalf. Insurance company investigators are trying to find evidence that shows you are at fault. Our investigators will document evidence and interview witnesses that benefit your claim.

You should always contact us immediately after workplace accident cases. Employers often try to force you to settle quickly when they are at fault. While a quick settlement may immediately get you money, it will usually also limit the liability of your employer, which could harm you in the long run.

What to Do When You Can’t Work

The worst injuries prevent you from working or limit your ability to work. Suddenly your income drops to nothing, but you still have rent or a mortgage to pay. Most people can only afford a few months of no income before they are in serious jeopardy. This is why you need fast help after being injured in an accident.

Your Norwalk personal injury accident lawyer will act quickly to protect your finances. We can help you apply for short-term disability and arrange for you to get medical tests that prove your disability. With this evidence in hand, we can get the insurance companies to pay up quickly.

If it was a workplace accident, you might also be eligible to continue receiving pay while not working or while working in a reduced capacity. Again, having a lawyer on your side will put you on an even footing with your workplace.

If your injuries have resulted in long-term disability, the personal injury law firm of Kennedy, Johnson, Schwab & Roberge, LLC, also practices Social Security law. 

We’ll ensure you have easy access to the paperwork and evidence you need to receive disability insurance from Social Security. If they try to deny your claim, we will file any appeals and even take them to court if necessary.

Personal Injury Lawyers Willing to Go to Trial

Two things make Kennedy, Johnson, Schwab & Roberge, LLC, effective advocates for injury victims in Norwalk. We have a long history of successfully getting compensation for our clients, and we have a reputation for being willing to take a case to court.

The latter is particularly effective at getting settlement offers from insurance companies. Insurance companies often make lowball offers, hoping that recipients won’t recognize they are being underpaid or that lawyers representing them will capitulate. That is something we will never do, and insurance companies know it.

We have taken insurance companies to court in the past, and we have consistently won millions of dollars in awards. We are experienced and know the true value of our client’s claims. 

Because insurance companies recognize this, they are more likely to make fair offers to our clients. And if they don’t, we never hesitate to file a civil suit with the Norwalk court.
