Why Insurance Companies Take So Long to Pay You

One common complaint we hear from accident victims goes like this: "The insurance company understands how bad I'm hurt but they still won't pay the claim." Often this is the case even if the company knows full well it will eventually have to fork over the full amount of the coverage.

The reason for this tactic is simple. The insurance company wants to have the use of the money it owes you for as long as possible. Once it pays you, of course, it no longer gets interest on your money. At Van Dorn & Curtiss we prosecute our client's claims aggressively so the insurance company can't stall. You should demand no less of any personal injury lawyer.
