Most personal injury lawsuits end at the settlement negotiation table and never proceed to trial. While the trial value of a Bakersfield personal injury claim will likely eclipse the possible settlement value, reaching a speedy resolution in a settlement is beneficial to all parties. Our attorneys have the negotiating skills and legal acumen to maximize our clients’ recoveries at the settlement phase, and defense firms in the areas know our firm’s reputation for success with jury verdicts.
This inherently encourages more amicable settlement negotiations with our clients. Insurance companies have no obligation to act in a policyholder’s or claimant’s best interests; they exist to make money and paying claims runs counter to their goals. When insurance companies attempt to lowball claimants or take advantage of unwary policyholders, our firm can hold them accountable and encourage fairer negotiations with our clients.
The Law Office of Curtis Floyd consults with leading experts, researchers, and investigators around the country to thoroughly research the facts of every case we take. Our firm coordinates timely and efficient investigations for our clients’ claims, so we can retain as much evidence as possible, because most physical evidence deteriorates quickly.
