Personal injuries caused by road accidents, workplace incidents, and medical negligence often result in severe trauma to victims. While filing a claim can help victims assess legal options, it can be challenging for injured parties to receive their claims from insurance companies. How can victims ensure they recover the compensation they deserve?

Insurance policies often have claim payout limits, which caused insurance companies to employ various tactics to reduce the payout for injury victims or even deny the claims altogether. Personal injury expert Jamison Allen reveals how insurers use age and health to devalue elderly plaintiffs' claims and how victims can protect themselves. Insurance companies know injured people are often in pain, taking powerful medications, anxious about how their bills will get paid, and uninformed about their rights under the law. Therefore, having a professional personal injury lawyer can prevent victims from losing their rightful compensation. Drawing from his extensive experience in trial law, Jamison recounts how a victim's determination to fight for justice led to a higher settlement and a successful outcome. He advises attorneys to understand the client's perspective and value their case based on their unique circumstances.
