3 Things to do When Filing a Georgia Insurance Claim

There are several things you should do if you have been involved in an accident and need to file a Georgia insurance claim. Be mindful that the actions you take at this vulnerable time could affect the outcome of your case. Therefore, after seeking medical attention, you should consult with Carrollton attorneys who have experience handling personal injury cases.

3 Things to do to Maximize the Value of Your Georgia Insurance Claim

  • Look for additional insurance coverage. You might have supplemental insurance in another auto policy or an umbrella policy. 
  • Understand the difference between your car's replacement value and what you owe. If your car was totaled, your insurance company may want to pay only the cash value at the time the accident occurred; however, you may owe more on your loan or lease. If you have Gap Coverage, it will make up for the difference  
  • Take notes when speaking with an insurance adjuster. Provide only the facts of the accident and write down the details of your conversation. Record the name of the person you spoke with, job title and phone number. Ask for the name of the person's supervisor also. 

Experienced Carrollton attorneys can provide you with more tips on filing a Georgia insurance claim to obtain fair compensation for your accident injuries.
