San Diego Personal Injury Attorney

Retain a San Diego injury attorney who will fight for your legal rights.

Why you need a San Diego Personal Injury Attorney.

This is Anderson Cooper 360 CNN investigative report [courtesy of You Tube video] which helps explain why you need an ethical, effective and experienced San Diego personal injury attorney for your injury claim who is not afraid to take your case to trial if that is what it takes to maximize the amount of money and protect your rights. This three part investigative report does an excellent job explaining how insurance companies use agressive tactics of delay, denial and ridiculously low settlement offers to boost their corporate profits.

Andersoon Cooper followed up on the of insurance company record profits and business tactics of, "deny, delay, defend," story (parts one and two) with "Keeping Them Honest" (part 3) which covers the story of Washington State's insurance industry reform attempt in February 2007 and the referendum R67 during which insurance companies poured money into Washington state in order to fight the new tougher insurance penalties for "bad faith" laws passed by the state's legislature. Despite the campaign spending heavily weighted in the insurance corporation favor, the new tougher penalties for insurance bad faith stood due largely to grass roots efforts and broad public support.

In 2008, Colorado State Legislature has also increased the punishment on insurance companies if they fail to award a reasonable settlement offer in a timely manner; this new law goes into effect in Colorado August 6, 2008. Both Washington State and Colorado have included attorney fees in these new tougher laws.

I strongly urge that you do not give the other person's insurance company a statement until you have consulted with an experienced San Diego personal injury attorney. I offer free initial no obligation legal consultations and I make a point of returning all calls, contact form inquiry, and e-mails promptly.
