Tacoma, WA: In most cases involving insurance settlement after a personal injury, the insurance adjusters and attorneys only rely on compensatory damages. The main focus is always on lost wages, loss of earning capacity, medical bills, property damages, and other economic damages.
Accident victims are, however, entitled to settlement due to the traumatic experience. Depending on the nature of the accident, emotional distress can manifest in the form of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), paranoia, and anxiety. Sears Injury Law – Tacoma fights for non-economic settlements like this.

Unlike economic damages due to personal injuries, emotional distress damages are subjective and can be hard to quantify. Luckily, the firm might talk to the victim’s family to get a clear picture, encourage them to journal their thoughts and feelings, and ensure the emotional distress is documented by a medical professional. Afterward, the firm uses its experience to accurately calculate these damages and add them to other tangible damages, such as medical expenses and loss of wages during negotiations.
In addition to ensuring clients receive fair settlement, the Personal Injury Lawyers represent all types of clients, including those injured in car, motorcycle, bicycle, and bus accidents. Like in any other personal injury case, the insurance company might try to offer a lower or no compensation. Luckily, with the help of Sears Injury Law – Tacoma, victims can increase their chances of a fair offer and recover peacefully from the injuries as they let the firm handle the case and negotiations.

Sears Injury Law – Tacoma is home to trained investigators, paralegals, and negotiators. The team is able to build a strong case, review the available evidence, and bring medical and other professionals on board if that can help strengthen the case. The negotiators are responsible for analyzing the offers from the insurance company, pushing back, and requesting better settlements. Since these back-and-forth interactions with insurance companies can be heated sometimes, paralegals are tasked with handling everything and ensuring that clients are recovering in peace.
The firm also operates on a contingency basis. Thanks to this mode of operation, there are no out-of-pocket costs, and the firm is only paid when the case is concluded. Besides giving clients the assurance that they will work hard on their case, this policy is one of the firm’s attempts to ensure legal services are available to those who need them most without worrying whether they can afford them.
