Personal Injury law is one of the most contentious arenas in the practice of law, because there is so much at stake for all of the parties involved. Personal Injury claims/Tort claims/Civil claims occur when an individual or entity "wrongs" another, and that "wrong" results in a "legal injury" or "cause of action". There are various types of "causes of action". The most appropriate legal remedy available to compensate an injured party is to award money damages. Damages should be fair, just and reasonable compensation for the injuries suffered, and can include awards for medical expenses, property damage, lost earnings or loss of earning capacity, permanent disability or disfigurement, and most importantly- pain and suffering.
Insurance companies make millions of dollars year after year in your premium dollars. There goal is to generate profits for their stockholders, and not to compensate you for what you have suffered. Insurance carriers play off the public’s fear that they may accidentally wrong someone and found legally responsible. Most "responsible" people possess insurance policies for their homes, cars, health care, and businesses. However, it should be completely understood that when it comes time for an insurance company to act on the tortfeasor’s behalf they do not part easily with policy money.
Every possible issue is contested and every possible avenue to remove itself and its insured from liability is explored. Even when an insurance company "agrees to liability", (meaning, its insured was legally at fault); seldom does the company ever want to pay the true value of the claim.
