Don’t Accept the First Settlement Offer You Get After a Car Accident
It’s tempting to try to move on from a car accident as quickly as possible. Sometimes, the person responsible for your car accident may offer you a settlement that seems as though it will put your financial concerns behind you. Accepting might offer you some temporary financial relief, but it’s rare for an initial settlement offer to account for all of your losses.
You have every right to hold the party liable for your car accident accountable for all of your post-collision expenses.
As such, our Oakland, CA, car accident lawyers recommend against accepting the first settlement offer you receive. It’s always better to compare offers against an attorney’s assessment of your losses.
You don’t have to let an insurer or liable party pressure you into accepting a settlement, either. You can consult an attorney about any attempts to minimize your right to recover.
They can then recommend a course of action that holds liable parties accountable for their attempts to shortchange you.

Call Oakland Car Accident Lawyers Sooner Rather Than Later
You want to hold the right parties responsible for your financial recovery after a car accident and preserve your rights throughout the process.
For help in achieving these aims, consider getting in touch with an Oakland car crash lawyer sooner rather than later. Fortunately, your first case consultation with Vaziri Law representatives comes free of charge.
Early communication with a lawyer lets you deflect an insurer’s attempts to minimize your coverage. You can put an attorney in charge of speaking with an insurance adjuster, subsequently making it harder for an insurer to confuse you with legalese or misrepresent the nature of your losses.
Early communication also allows you to stay ahead of a car accident case’s statute of limitations. According to Cal. Civ. Code § 335.1, you need to file a claim within two years of an accident.
Otherwise, you may accidentally waive your right to financial support. If you’re working with an attorney, they can focus on filing by your deadline while you prioritize your health.
Our Oakland Auto Accident Attorneys Can Help You File an Insurance Claim
Drivers throughout California are required to purchase insurance before they hit the road. As such, the party responsible for your recent collision should have the coverage needed to help you recover from your losses.
You have every right to file an insurance claim with a relevant provider, but don’t do it alone. Working with a car accident lawyer in Oakland, CA, will make it easier to avoid the mistakes that might otherwise give insurers the right to deny you coverage.
An attorney can also challenge an insurer’s attempts to deny you coverage. We’re not afraid to appeal claims on behalf of our clients, and we can even sue insurers for their attempts to misrepresent your losses.
We Can Pursue a Personal Injury Claim on Your Behalf
If the party responsible for your car accident doesn’t have insurance, or if an insurance company won’t give you the financial support you need to recover from a collision, you can take your fight to recover to civil court.
Filing a car accident claim allows you to summon a liable party for settlement negotiations. If a liable party won’t agree to provide you with a settlement during negotiations, you can present your case to a judge. It may then fall to that judge to determine whether or not you can walk away from your case with the compensation you need to recover.
Filing a personal injury claim does not automatically mean that you need to go to trial. You can work with our attorneys to discuss what the civil process looks like and what to expect from your specific proceedings.
The majority of car accident cases conclude during settlement negotiations, but we’re not afraid to litigate if the need arises.
Holding the Right People Responsible for Your Losses
Whether you decide to pursue an insurance claim or a car accident lawsuit, you need evidence proving that someone else owed you a duty of care at the time of your collision.
That evidence may include the following:
- Physical debris
- Electronic evidence from phones and vehicular computers, as applicable
- Witness statements
- Video and photo footage of the accident
- Expert witness testimony
Our legal team calls on professional investigators to build out your claim. Their efforts make it easier to establish a timeline of negligence leading up to your collision.
We can subsequently prepare to present that timeline to an insurance adjuster or civil judge, depending on how you want to proceed with your recovery.
