Can you afford not to get an attorney?
Insurance industry statistics show that if you hire an attorney, your final payout could be more than 370% larger than if you handle your own case.
SPEAK DIRECTLY TO AN ATTORNEY ABOUT MY CASE
You Need a Settlement to Pay for Your Recovery
You’ve been in an accident. One of your many pressing concerns is “How am I going to pay for all of this?” Accidents are expensive. Understandably, you want to make sure you’re compensated fairly.
From possible medical bills to lost income, you need a full and fair settlement from the insurance company. It’s stressful trying to figure out how the money is all going to work—and how you will cover the inevitable expenses.
Financially, you have to consider all of that while still supporting yourself and your family. People who have been in an accident need answers to their financial questions, and they often feel they can save money by handling their case on their own.
You might feel confident that insurance companies are set up to serve you when you file a claim or that you can pressure them into giving you the money you feel you deserve.
Insurance Companies Aren’t on your Side
The reality is that insurance settlement cases are complicated. You might have thought that the insurance company is on your side, but they aren’t. They exist to make money, so a dollar less on your settlement is a dollar more in their pockets. If you try to handle the claim on your own, you will almost certainly get an offer that is well below its true value.
The insurance company knows it has all the monetary power and legal leverage when you chase a claim without an attorney. Without legal experience, you will likely be taken advantage of.
There are important deadlines and legal documents and medical reports that require exactness, as well as an extensive list of other proceedings that an accident victim will neither be aware of nor prepared to tackle on their own.
How a Personal Injury Lawyer at Craig Swapp & Associates Could Help You
Personal injury lawyers are indispensable advocates for their clients. They unravel the legal traps and unnecessary complexities created by the insurance companies to secure the highest compensation possible for you.
A study conducted by the Insurance Research Council (IRC) showed that accident victims who use a personal injury lawyer receive an average settlement that is 3.7 times larger than what’s received by those who try to brave the insurance companies without an experienced attorney—even after all of the legal fees are deducted.
The simple truth is that you can’t afford to go without an experienced personal injury lawyer on your side. The insurance company will look for any way they can to take advantage of you, but you don’t have to let them get away with it.
This table shows the average payout as calculated in the 1999 IRC study. (With inflation, these numbers are even higher today).

Client Reviews
“I was concerned with all the paperwork”
Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"
My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"
I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"
I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"
My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
