What If the Insurance Company Refuses to Pay for Pain and Suffering?

What If the Insurance Company Refuses to Pay for Pain and Suffering?

One moment, you’re on the road, at home, or you’re otherwise just enjoying your day. The next moment, someone has been careless, and now you’re hurt. You may think you’re lucky, though, because the insurance company will cover your losses, right? 

Like many people, you may find that the insurance company isn’t willing to cover the full cost of your losses. That leaves you wondering, “Now what?” 

Luckily, you have options following your injury. Reach out for help when you’re hurt and the insurance company refuses to pay for your pain and suffering, or other non-economic damages. 

What Your Insurance Company May Cover

When you’re injured, your first response may be to call the insurance company and alert them about the accident. The insurance company may be able to respond to your claim and offer you a settlement that covers your needs. 

However, the company also has its best interests in mind. Because of this, they may refuse to cover all your economic damages you’ve suffered in the accident. That means your non-economic losses, such as pain and suffering, may be uncovered as well. Unfortunately, these losses may not be covered by insurance companies anyway.

You May Be Entitled to a Lawsuit

If you’ve been seriously injured, you should receive the full compensation you’re eligible for. However, the insurance company may simply not be willing to pay, and they may not pay for non-economic damages. Because of this, it may be in your best interests to seek out a Staten Island personal injury attorney and file a civil lawsuit. 

When you’re facing more than a few car repairs or the cost of an ambulance ride, you may need more help than the insurance company is willing to give you. Instead of fighting the insurance company for a fair settlement, seeking compensation in the courtroom may be a better option for your claim. 

However, keep in mind that the liable party may try to place blame on you, which could reduce the compensation you receive. If you don’t have legal experience, you won’t know how to defend yourself against accusations of blame.

File a Claim with a Lawyer’s Help

If you’ve been hurt by someone else’s actions, the insurance company may simply not cover the losses you’ve suffered. When you’ve experienced severe trauma, you shouldn’t have to simply deal with the aftermath of your injuries on your own. 

Fortunately, you don’t have to accept your intangible losses. You can file a lawsuit with help from the lawyers at Greenstein & Milbauer, LLP. Your attorney can help you seek compensation when you’re facing severe losses beyond your financial damages. 

We can even get started with a free consultation about your claim. We can take time to discuss why the insurance company doesn’t want to pay for your pain and suffering and why the adjuster may not work with you. If you’ve been refused by the insurance company, give us a call at 1-800-VICTIM2 (842-8462) or visit us online for more information.
