“Accident Case”
Goldstein, Buckley, Cechman, Rice and Purtz, PA was the only law firm who would take our car accident case. Andrea Pleimling Smith was very thorough, explained everything in a very detailed fashion, and was easy to reach when questions arose. She kept us informed every step of the way. Without her, we would have suffered a severe financial loss due to an accident which was not our fault. Florida’s No Fault law is terrible and very unfair. Andrea and her team were very helpful in recouping all of the money we were required to spend!

Question:
Should I take the first settlement offer from the insurance company after a bicycle accident in Southwest Florida?Answer:
If you’re involved in a bicycle injury claim in Florida and an insurance company has made an offer to you, the best thing that you can do is make sure that you get a personal injury attorney involved. Do not accept that offer. Oftentimes, what insurance companies do is they will try to get people to settle their case for as little as possible as quickly as possible after a crash. For that reason, you need someone fighting for you in your corner. The insurance company does not have your best interest in mind. They are trying to get your case resolved as quickly as possible for as little money as possible to save their insurance company money. For that reason, you need someone fighting for you that is potentially willing to litigate and try your case if necessary if in fact the insurance company is not being fair.Oftentimes, they will submit low first offers and try to get people to resolve their cases quickly. If that’s the case, do not do it. Contact a personal injury attorney and someone who can help you, someone who specializes in bicycle accidents because you need someone representing you and fighting for you to compensate you for your damages. If you have questions and you were involved in a situation like this, please call us. We’d be happy to help you.
