I can say this with a huge degree of confidence because <strong>I see it in action everyday here at The Injury Lawyers HQ<\/strong> and <em>I&#8217;ve seen some of the absolutely appalling offers insurers try and fob people off with<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>If you are dealing with the insurers directly, and you are looking for some guidelines valuations, I will give you a few breakdowns later on in the blog but heed this massive warning \u2013 dealing with the insurers is not a clever way to settle your claim. Yes, you may be able to settle it quicker, <strong>but it\u2019s highly likely you are in serious danger of under settling the claim<\/strong>. If I had a pound for every time people had settled directly and then come to a lawyer for help because they feel they\u2019ve under settled, I\u2019d be writing blogs about my worldwide travel escapades on the back of a 164ft yacht.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So what is the maximum whiplash compensation you can get<\/strong>? Is there an upper limit? How much is your claim worth? How much is the average whiplash compensation claim worth? This isn\u2019t something that you can easily estimate&#8230;<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>ONLY<\/strong> foolproof way to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/whiplash_claims.php\">guarantee that you will receive the maximum whiplash compensation<\/a> is to instruct a top quality injury law firm to run the case in the proper way. This means getting a medical report from a suitably qualified medico-legal expert. This vital evidence is what we will use to then value your whiplash injury and look to get you the maximum whiplash compensation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Without medical evidence, it\u2019s very hard to put a value on your whiplash claim<\/strong>. You can guess \u2013 you could say that the claim is worth \u00a32,750 because that\u2019s the statistical average a minor whiplash claim may settle for nowadays. You could say that the claim is worth \u00a31,000 because that\u2019s the lower limit for a minor whiplash injury according to official brackets. Or you could say it\u2019s worth \u00a35,000 because that\u2019s at the upper limit of a minor whiplash bracket. But where you are on that bracket is really more dependent on medical evidence.<\/p>\n<p>So without medical evidence, how do you know where about in the brackets your whiplash claim goes? In fact, how do know if your whiplash is a minor whiplash at all? What if its moderate, which generally means you may be eligible for a higher award? That is the point of this article \u2013 <strong>you don\u2019t know that unless you obtain medical evidence and allow an expert injury lawyer to value the claim<\/strong>. Even if the insurers get you a medical report, how do you know it\u2019s truly independent? How do you know it\u2019s a suitable expert as oppose to a \u2018cheap\u2019 one because insurers are, after all, there to save money? Their duty is to their shareholders and maintaining their profits \u2013 not to you!<\/p>\n<p><strong>So to get the maximum whiplash compensation, call our free claims helpline on 0800 634 75 75 today<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite what insurance companies tell people, they are there to save money &#8211; not pay out as much as possible.
