No. The reason is that insurance companies are concerned most about their bottom lines. This means that the amount they offer will not necessarily be in line with what a case is worth. In some cases, the amount may seem like a lot, but after expenses are paid, either there is nothing left over or some bills are still not paid. Insurance companies may extend a settlement offer after a car crash, for example. This is especially true of cases that involve a spine or brain injury. This is why it’s important to always consult with an attorney first.
