When an offer arrives, the question is whether it fairly reflects your losses — or whether trial might do better. It's a decision to make with clear information.
The Case for Settling
Settlement is certain, faster, and private. A fair offer that fully accounts for future needs is often the right choice.
The Case for Trial
When an insurer refuses to pay fair value, trial may be necessary. The credible threat of trial is itself what produces many fair settlements.
Making the Decision
Your attorney lays out the offer, the risks, and the likely range at trial. The final choice is always yours.
