Should I Call an Insurance Adjuster Back? Consult an Attorney Before Speaking with the Insurance Adjuster

You’ve been injured in a car accident in Milwaukee. The bills are piling up. You’re missing time at work. And now the insurance company wants to talk about a settlement.

But how do you know what’s fair? Should you accept their offer? And who’s really looking out for your best interest?

At Natasha Misra Law, we understand how confusing and stressful settlement negotiations can be — especially when you’re recovering from an injury. Our team is here to help you make smart decisions, protect your rights, and secure the compensation you truly deserve.

What Is a Settlement, and How Do Settlement Negotiations Work in Wisconsin Car Accident Claims?

A settlement is an agreement between you and the at-fault driver’s insurance company to resolve your claim without going to court. In most cases, it’s how car accident cases in Wisconsin are resolved.

But just because a settlement avoids trial doesn’t mean it’s simple — or fair. Insurance companies are trained to protect their bottom line, not your recovery. That’s why having a lawyer who knows the process can make all the difference.

Why Legal Representation Matters

You don’t have to take on the insurance company alone.

When you work with Natasha Misra Law, we handle every part of the negotiation process for you — from gathering medical records and building your claim to pushing back on low offers and demanding what you’re truly owed.

We’ve helped clients across Milwaukee and Wisconsin navigate the insurance process and recover the compensation they need to move forward. We’ll do the same for you.

What Factors Affect Your Settlement Amount

Every case is different, but here are some of the biggest factors that influence the value of your car accident settlement in Wisconsin:

Who Was at Fault: Liability plays a key role. If the other driver was clearly negligent, you may be entitled to more.

Your Injuries: The more serious your injuries — and the longer your recovery — the more compensation you may need.

Medical Costs: This includes hospital bills, ongoing treatment, physical therapy, and projected future care.

‍Lost Income: If you missed work or can no longer do your job the same way, that loss should be reflected in your settlement.

Pain and Suffering: Emotional distress, physical pain, and loss of enjoyment of life can and should be part of your compensation.

How Natasha Misra Law Approaches Settlement Negotiations

We don’t just accept the first offer — and we don’t let the insurance company decide what your recovery is worth. Here’s what we do:

Review your medical records and treatment history
Collect witness statements, photos, and police reports
Work with experts to estimate future medical needs and lost earning capacity
Prepare a demand that reflects the full impact of the accident on your life
Negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf — with your best interest as our top priority

Our job is to help you get back on your feet — physically, emotionally, and financially — and we take that job seriously.

An insurance adjuster is a person who an insurance company employs to investigate and evaluate insurance claims. Insurance adjusters are responsible for determining the extent of coverage and scope of insuring a company’s liability.

If you are in the process of seeking compensation after a car accident, you will probably encounter insurance adjusters. Insurance adjusters work on behalf of the insurance company, so it’s important that you do not speak with them without your attorney present.

What are The Dangers of Speaking to an Insurance Adjuster Without Legal Advice?

Insurance adjusters evaluate the extent of the injury or damage, determine liability, and negotiate a settlement. Speaking to an insurance adjuster without any legal advice from an attorney can carry numerous potential dangers, including:

Limited understanding of your rights: Insurance policies and claim processes can be complex. Without legal support, you may not have a clear understanding of your rights and could unintentionally say or do something that could jeopardize your case.
Weakening your case: Adjusters have expertise in fighting claims. They may find ways to weaken your case or deny your claim altogether.
Unfair settlement offers: If you are unaware of the actual value of your claim, you are at risk of accepting unfair compensation.
Contradictory statements: Claims adjusters will usually ask questions and often try to take recorded statements that can cause you to make contradictory or inaccurate statements that can undermine your credibility.

Why Consult An Attorney?

There are many reasons to consult an attorney when dealing with insurance adjusters, including the following:

Consulting an attorney helps ensure equal representation. An attorney can level the playing field by protecting your interests.
An attorney has an extensive understanding of insurance laws and regulations and can help you navigate the claims process effectively.
Insurance adjusters have negotiation skills. By hiring a lawyer, you gain access to someone skilled in negotiation.
An attorney has the knowledge and experience to help you navigate complex legal issues.
