Should I negotiate with the insurance adjuster myself without the help of an attorney in order to settle a personal injury, dog bite, slip and fall or car / auto accident case?
No. Representing yourself and negotiating with an adjuster is usually not a good idea! Because you have no experience and no law degree, you are often not aware of the full value of your case. The insurance adjuster may take advantage of your inexperience. Adjusters typically will offer a lot less money to a person representing themselves than they would to an attorney representing a client. Furthermore, when you are representing yourself in a personal injury or slip and fall case, the insurance company knows that you do not know how to litigate a lawsuit. Therefore you don’t have as much leverage with the adjuster.
