NEGOTIATING A FATAL ACCIDENT SETTLEMENT

Insurance companies will do everything they can to settle your claim for the least amount of money feasible, even in such a tragic situation. They don’t want to take the chance of involving an attorney, especially after a terrible accident.

When you’re at your most vulnerable, insurers frequently make a lowball offer in the hopes that you’ll settle as soon as possible without considering the full value of your claim.

Your Denton wrongful death lawyer, on the other hand, will make sure that your voice is heard. We’ll communicate with the insurance provider on your behalf, negotiating and handling all correspondence so you may focus on the grieving process.

We’ll also look into the circumstances surrounding your loved one’s death. Gathering evidence and witness testimony as soon as possible after a wrongful death is most beneficial.

We often cope by thinking about minutes and hours after a loved one dies unexpectedly. Unfortunately, the law requires that a wrongful death claim be brought within two years of the loss of a loved one. Hiring a lawyer will ensure that you don’t lose out on your chance to get the compensation you deserve.

SEEK THE ADVICE OF A LAWYER AFTER A WRONGFUL DEATH

Very efficient staff. I am VERY pleased with this firm. Gina W.

Very professional job handling my accident claim. I had some ER bills, and some visits to my ortho after (and various other bills that kept coming in). I was afraid I was going to get stuck owing money, but Doug Goyen took care of the case and had everything paid, including compensating me for the injury. Great lawyer IMO. I felt like my case was taken care of very well. Thx!! Bernard M.

Doug is a great attorney. He took care of my auto accident claim promptly, and answered any questions I had. I also had one of my hospital bills go into collections for non-payment. I was able to contact Doug a year after the accident, and received a copy of the check the hospital claimed they didn’t receive. I highly recommend this guy. David J.

The Law Office of Doug Goyen helped me recovery every bit I was owed on my claim. Very happy I used them. They knew what they were doing, and kept me informed. I felt taken care of the whole way. You wont go wrong using them. Arthur H.

Mr. Goyen helped me take on my own insurance company, the great and mighty Allstate. My prior firm basically dumped me, with a permanent injury because the case didn’t meet their financial guidelines for a settlement. I was a bicycle rider hit by a car driver at an intersection, and Allstate was the company on BOTH SIDES OF THE CLAIM. My own insurance company tried to throw me under the bus to limit their payout! Without Mr. Goyen’s help, I would have been left with NOTHING! I had thousands of dollars in unpaid medical bills, unable to receive treatment to correct the issue. He was unafraid and helped me get the best settlement I could … I am tremendously thankful! Pamala M.
