The importance of a demand letter
The purpose of the Demand Letter in personal injury cases is to present facts about the accident or incident and injuries, an overview of the medical treatment, and a listing of the medical bills and expenses, with the objective of convincing the at-fault party’s insurance company to settle the case.
Typically, claims for personal injuries are vigorously defended by insurance companies. A well-crafted demand letter and package is the key to setting the context for obtaining an often-elusive pre-suit settlement. A powerful demand letter can help you settle the case for top-dollar before protracted and costly litigation.
A Well-Drafted Demand Letter for Personal Injury Cases includes
- A summary of the incident along with available photos.
- An overview of the injuries sustained.
- An overview of the ailments due to the injuries.
- Summary of the medical bills and expenses.
- The ICD codes contained in the medical records.
- A summary of anticipated future medical expenses.
- Any other losses sustained such as loss of income with relevant documentation to substantiate it.
- The monetary amount demanded.
