Injury

I am very outspoken about despising what insurance companies do to injury victims. I am not talking about the good folks around town who happen to work in the insurance industry. I am not talking about your (or my) insurance agent. I am not even talking about the...

This is not news to me, or to anyone who is in the trenches fighting insurance companies on behalf of injury victims. Surely there are good insurance adjusters who want to do the right thing; however, they have limited, to no control. They must follow orders. Those at...

I was recently in the process of fighting about a legal issue with an insurance company. Every once in a while we come across a matter that the New Hampshire Supreme Court has not ruled on. Actually, it happens a lot in the injury law business. And, for the most part,...
