Albuquerque insurance adjusters get tough on personal injury claims.
By Mark Caruso, Personal Injury and Wrongful Death Attorney (Albuquerque, NM)
Insurance Claims Adjusters who routinely handle personal injury claims from car accidents are getting tougher in paying claims. The result may be the opposite of what the claims adjusters intended. More and more personal injury claimants are hiring attorneys to represent them. The claim costs the insurance company more money the moment a claimant gets an attorney. Getting tougher on personal injury claim evaluations will cost the insurance company more money in the long run.
"A greater percentage of claimants are getting attorneys to represent them in their personal injury claims, and this is costing insurance companies more money in the long run," says Albuquerque attorney Mark J. Caruso. Caruso is among a growing number of attorneys who only handle personal injury claims. As a former insurance company attorney, Caruso knows both sides of the claim. "I used to represent insurance companies, but now I only represent claimants against insurance companies."
Clients who have successfully used Caruso as their attorney note that it was advantageous to have an attorney who knew the strategies of the insurance adjusters and their attorneys. Attorneys who have battled Caruso in cases note that he knows the ins and outs of the personal injury claim, and he is extremely knowledgeable and prepared for battle. He is licensed in both California and New Mexico and has been practicing law for 28 years.
Caruso has two offices in Albuquerque, but travels statewide representing claimants. His Albuquerque offices are located in the Northeast Heights near Montgomery and Carlisle and in the Northwest near I-40 and Coors. He can be contacted at 505-883-5000 or toll free at 800-657-9292.

A recently released study by the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA) revealed that cell phones and other mobile devices cause nearly 25 percent of U.S. car crashes each year.
The GHSA, a nonprofit group that focuses on improved traffic safety, evaluated more than 350 scientific papers on distracted driving that have been published since 2000.
The study found that drivers are distracted nearly 50 percent of the time while operating a vehicle and that the use of a cell phone or other mobile device while driving caused a significant increase in the risk of crashing.
In 2009, there were almost 5,500 deaths and 500,000 injuries that resulted from distracted driving crashes, according to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The GHSA suggested state safety measures, such as a complete ban on cell phone use for novice drivers and a texting ban for all drivers.

It goes without saying that, in order for a claim for compensation to be successful, an injury victim should seek help only from experts. Caruso is one. As a former insurance attorney, he knows how insurance companies 'live and breathe' so to speak, which gives him an advantage.

ReplyDeleteIn England, only solicitors were traditionally in direct contact with the client. The solicitor retained a barrister if one was necessary and acted as an intermediary between the barrister and the client. In most cases a barrister would be obliged, under what is known as the "cab rank rule", to accept instructions for a case in an area in which they held themselves out as practising, at a court at which they normally appeared and at their usual rates.
