Video Transcript **Speakers:** Ira Sherman, Joseph Cammarata, Stephen Ollar, Allan Siegel **Ira Sherman (00:02):** I would say that Chaikin, Sherman, Cammarata and Siegel has a completely different outlook on cases that other people think are garden variety automobile accidents, because to the person who is involved in that accident, that’s not garden variety, that’s altering their life. **Joseph Cammarata (00:21):** First of all, we don’t advertise. People come to us by word of mouth, either from defense lawyers, from insurance companies, from colleagues at the bar. They know that we have decades of experience in the personal injury field. They know that what we bring to bear is a group of lawyers that work and non-lawyers that work as a team to make sure we understand what the nature and the extent of the injury is. We make sure we understand and can express to a third party just what those injuries are, and we work to obtain the most compensation that we can for an individual. **Stephen Ollar (01:04):** What we do a lot of is discovery, not just discovery of the facts of the case, but discovery about insurance. It may be that the individual was operating the vehicle for an employer, and if they were acting with what we call the course and scope of their employment, then there could be potentially additional coverage that would cover a person for those injuries. **Allan Siegel (01:27):** We’ve been handling car accident cases since Don Chaikin founded this firm over 50 years ago. Since we spend a lot of time and we have a lot of those cases, we have developed a level of experience and knowledge that I think is very unique in our field. There aren’t many law firms who can say that they’ve been doing this type of work for over 50 years. **Ira Sherman (01:52):** I care enough to look to determine who this person is and how it affected them, and that takes up a lot of my conversation with our clients. ![](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/image-7.png) You aren’t alone if you’re overwhelmed by an auto accident. The combination of increasing medical bills and lost wages due to injuries from an accident is challenging for anyone or their family to endure. When you have to deal with an insurance company on top of that, you can find yourself in an uphill battle to get the money you deserve. Progressive is one of the [largest car insurance companies](https://www.forbes.com/advisor/car-insurance/largest-auto-insurance-companies/) in the country. However, this doesn’t mean every Progressive insurance claim goes smoothly and without incident. Many people have reported issues with filing a claim with Progressive over the years. There are several different reasons why [filing a claim with Progressive](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/insurance-claim/) can be difficult. Some people have reported issues with their claims being denied, while others have had problems getting the right amount paid for the damage done to their car. If you are having trouble with your Progressive claim, [contact](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/contact-us/) a Chaikin, Sherman, Cammarata & Siegel, P.C. [car accident lawyer](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/car-accidents/) today for a free consultation. ## **How Does Progressive Determine What My Injury Claim Is Worth?** Like most insurance companies, Progressive likely uses a combination of human review and computer software to determine what your claim is worth. According to insurance companies, using software allows them to be more consistent with their settlement payouts while erasing the likelihood of human error or bias. However, it’s also believed that this software enables Progressive and other companies to justify underpaying car accident victims. Regardless of how Progressive is reviewing your case, there are various factors they use to determine how much they think your case should be worth: * Injuries that were documented * Medical treatment related to the accident * The duration of your medical care and how long it takes to recover * Any other costs you sustained from the accident, such as property damage or lost wages * How long you may be disabled and the severity of the disability Before you obtain an evaluation from Progressive to determine what your case is worth – or if Progressive has given you an evaluation less than what you believe is fair for your claim – contact Chaikin, Sherman, Cammarata & Siegel, P.C. At our firm, we will discuss your case and ensure that Progressive is paying you fairly for your injury claim. ## **Should I Settle My Car Accident Claim with Progressive or File a Lawsuit?** If you’ve received a low settlement offer from Progressive, the next step may involve filing a lawsuit to get the money you deserve. [Filing a lawsuit](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/what-is-a-personal-injury-lawsuit/) does not mean your case will go to trial. Most insurance companies, including Progressive, try to avoid trials if they can. This is especially true if the true value of your claim may exceed the limit of the insurance policy. If you believe your case has merit, however, filing a lawsuit is an option that may help you get the compensation you deserve. Contact https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/iStock-912151500-scaled-1.jpg to find out more about your options. ![progressive insurance agent estimator](https://www.chaikinandsherman.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/iStock-1286941523-1-1024x683.jpg) ## **Get Help from a Maryland Attorney to Deal with Progressive After an Auto Collision** If you are looking for the highest level representation available for your personal injury case, turn to Chaikin, Sherman, Cammarata & Siegel, P.C.
