  • Who Pays For Repairs After A Car Accident In West Palm Beach?Who Pays For Repairs After A Car Accident In West Palm Beach?
    www.800goldlaw.com  Craig Goldenfarb, an auto accident attorney in West Palm Beach, FL, understands how to handle insurance companies after a car or truck accident. One of the first questions most victims must face after getting proper medical treatment is how to get their car repaired. If you have been in a car accident and are healthy enough to return to work and normal activity, you will need to have your car repaired quickly. Typically, the insurance company of the other driver will pay for this but they may want you to use a mechanic or body shop that they work with regularly. Depending on the case, you may be able to take it to any shop you want and still have it paid for. We do not, however, recommend that you speak with the other driver's insurance company without first speaking with a lawyer. If you have been injured, you may be entitled to recover damages. If you give a statement or sign any paperwork for the insurance company, your case could be over before you truly understand the extent of your injuries.

    If you or a loved one has been injured in a Florida car accident and have questions, please feel free to call West Palm Beach accident lawyer Craig Goldenfarb at 800-GOLD-LAW.

  • Why Do I Need a Lawyer in West Palm Beach?Why Do I Need a Lawyer in West Palm Beach?
    http://www.800goldlaw.com Hiring a personal injury attorney can be difficult and finding the right one is crucial to your case. West Palm Beach attorney Craig Goldenfarb explains the importance of hiring a lawyer and why not having one can jeopardize your case. Watch this video to find out more. You are probably searching this site because you or someone you know has been involved in a car accident and is looking for legal representation. Hiring a lawyer is important because we have experience dealing with insurance companies and know how to fill out the forms you receive and what phone calls you should or should not return. Insurance adjusters start calling right away and may ask you for a recorded statement in regard to your accident, and though it may not seem like a big deal at the time, what you say on that statement may be used against you later on. Giving a statement right after a car accident is not always the best thing to do because you may still be filled with adrenaline and not feeling the pain of your injury, but after a few days realize your injuries are worse than you thought when making your statement. This can be used against you later, which is why it is important to hire a lawyer from the beginning who will walk you through the process and act on your behalf.
