Here are some of the tactics used by some insurers to take advantage of claimants who do not have the protection from the representation of their case with a car accident attorney:

• Causing a number of delays that are unreasonable.
• The representative of the insurer does not return your phone calls promptly or does not get back to you at all.
• Your case gets transferred from one adjuster to another.
• Causing delays due to reasons such as ‘Waiting for approval’ after a substantial amount of time has passed or calls the investigation as ‘pending’ or ‘incomplete’.

Providing false information about the coverage and intimidation.

• Unreasonably suggesting the claimant to use their own health insurance for injuries from the crash.
• Rejects the proposal of your request for rental car and suggests that your friends drive you to work instead.
• Advises the claimant to use vacation and sick time hours at work, to minimize travel expenses.
• Making offers that sound like the only option and in a tone like: “take it or leave it”.
• Indicating that your file is going to be closed soon, in spite of any of your concerns or questions.

False manipulation of data and deception.

• Oversight of your medical expenses and miscalculation of your lost wages.
• Assessing damages as of very low or negligible value.
• Not presenting complete set of accident photos, deletion of photos showing vehicle damages.
• Obtaining false medical exam reports from doctors who act in favor of the adjuster.
