Insurance Issues After an Accident
Speak with an Experienced Denver Car Accident Attorney
After a car accident, an insurance policy is usually the source of compensation for property damage and personal injury claims.
Especially after minor accidents, the insurance company will often pay the claim. The majority of claimants will accept this initial offer without dispute. This is often a mistake on their part.
The primary trouble most accident victims encounter is assuming the claims process is simple. To facilitate the accident claims process, take your time when you purchase your policy to understand the extent of your coverage. This will help you avoid unpleasant surprises later if you need to file a claim.
Even for conscientious customers, issues sometimes arise. One of the most common pitfalls is waiting too long to file a claim. The likelihood of difficulties arising increases with each passing hour following an accident. Contacting the insurance company should be among post-accident priorities such as filing a police report.

Disputed Insurance Claims
It is important to know that even when filed properly and timely, insurance companies can and do dispute claims. Usually, these disputes are over the amount that should be paid to adequately cover injuries and property damage.
It is important to collect all appropriate documentation after an accident. This documentation should include:
- A copy of the police report
- Pictures of the accident scene
- Names and contact information of eyewitnesses
- All receipts for property damage, medical bills, & other expenses related to the accident
After suffering a personal injury caused by someone else, you will generally have to deal with the other individual’s insurance company and adjuster.
Typically, they will try to rush you through the settlement process so that you are prevented from obtaining adequate compensation for your injury. Are you ready to get started? Call now for your free consultation.

"I put my TRUST in Dan Sloane."I hired Denver Trial Lawyers to represent us in a personal injury case. My mother was abused in a nursing home. I was able to call and get my questions answered in a quick response. Dan is very professional and impressed me during negotiations with his clever strategies. He sincerely cares and seeks justice. Dan knows what he's doing and won our case for us. Having the assurance of someone strong handling things when you're broken and trying to heal was such a RELIEF. Thanks to Dan Sloane and John McDonnell for helping us through this ordeal and getting justice and compensation for my mom.- Julie D.

"Mr. Woodruff never gave up."My case ended up getting so messed up and complicated because of my former attorneys that no firm would even consider taking my case to try and salvage it. But, thanks to Mr. Woodruff for never giving up and helping us, even though his plate was so full of other clients. He never pushed us off to the side nor quit helping us. Now, this part is very important! Mr. Woodruff was never hired as my attorney, but yet, he insisted on making sure that my family and I were always taken care of and never forgotten about! Plus, he never asked us for one cent for all the time and work he had put into my case! Mr. Woodruff put more time into my case than the attorneys that I hired! In my opinion, Mr. Woodruff could have easily sent me a bill somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000 and up! Mr. Woodruff and his firm are the only attorneys that I know who truly care about the people and not just about making money! Eventually, Mr. Woodruff and Mr. Sloane helped my family recover enough money to help us be able to start our lives over. So, if you're looking for a firm of attorneys that are ethical, actually care about you, and will do everything within their power to get you what you deserve, then you must contact Denver Trial Lawyers! My family cannot stress enough just how great this firm is! They truly saved our lives, so do yourself a huge favor and call Denver Trial Lawyers so they can save yours! Thank you, Mr. Woodruff and Mr. Sloane, from the bottom of our hearts, you will never be forgotten for all you have done for us! You are truly my family's angels!- Jon F.

"We are incredibly grateful to Jordan Grosgebauer and the entire team at Denver Trial Lawyers."After the devastating loss of our son due to medical malpractice, we felt lost, heartbroken, and unsure where to turn. Jordan was the only attorney who not only took the time to truly listen to us, but also believed in our case when others wouldn’t. Throughout the entire process, Jordan was patient, compassionate, and always available to answer our questions. She helped guide us through one of the most painful times in our lives with empathy and professionalism. Thanks to Jordan and her team's dedication and expertise, we were able to find a sense of justice for our son. We can’t thank Jordan and her team enough for their unwavering support and commitment.
