Personal Injury Law Firms - Common Misconceptions
There are many misconceptions about personal injury lawyers and the lawsuits that they bring on behalf of their clients. The American Association for Justice (AAJ, formerly the Association of Trial Lawyers of America) is an organization that works to promote a fair and effective justice system, thereby ensuring that injured persons can obtain justice when they are faced with powerful insurance companies.
In a personal injury action, an insurance company representing a negligent defendant will do all that is within its power to minimize any payments to an injured party. Part of their strategy involves generating myths about the lawyers that try to help the injured parties. Click here to read Debunking the Myths, an AAJ article discussing those myths.
Consumer Protection and Insurance Bad Faith
The consumer focus of the law firm general practice can help you if you have been the victim under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA), if you are party to a breached contract, or if you believe that you are on the receiving end of bad faith actions by an insurance company.
The DTPA protects consumers from false and deceptive business practices in most consumer transactions. In addition to enforcement by the Texas Attorney General, individual private citizens, partnerships, and corporations can also enforce the DTPA. If you believe that you have been deceived under the DTPA, you may be entitled to damages. Contact Mr. Scammahorn today for a consultation. Because the DTPA can be interpreted to cover a broad range of activities, it is important to have an experienced attorney that is well versed on the DTPA and can fight your cause for you.
If you are having trouble collecting benefits from an insurance company, the Scammahorn Law Firm can help. Insurance companies have lawyers that work very hard to keep the claims paid out as low as possible. You should have a lawyer on your side fighting for your rights as well.
