I am extremely grateful to have had Jon as my attorney for my personal injury case. I feel Jon went above and beyond to make sure I received the settlement I deserved for my injuries. Every aspect of my case was taken care of by Jon and his wonderful staff and I can honestly say that I was in good hands from beginning to end.

Happy Birthday Groth Law Firm, S.C. Three years ago today we opened our doors. Thanks to everyone who helped us along the way.

Listen to Attorney Groth’s interview on News/Talk 1310 in Madison.  

I found this interesting article about various apps that will prevent a phone from texting while driving.  The app works with the phone’s GPS to see how fast the phone is moving.  If it is moving faster than a person can walk the phone is blocked from texting.  I haven’t tried it.  In theory it would prevent someone from texting while driving a car or while on a bike or bicycle.  If you are a passenger in a car you can answer a timed question to unlock the app.  Maybe a good idea for parents with teenage kids. 

Attorney Groth was a guest on the Bill Leff show on Chicago’s WGN 720.  Listen to the podcast when you have a chance.

Can you guess the result?

Let’s start with the bad news first. The person who waited to call until after the meeting actually waiting a few months to call. At the time of the meeting he was still treating with his doctor. He told the insurance adjuster that he went to the doctor and had other appointments in the future (i.e. after that meeting). The adjuster presented him with a “standard Release” that offered to pay for the past medical care (a few doctors visits) and up to $1,500.00 in future care. The adjuster also offered about $700 in “pain and suffering.”

The injured person continued to go to the doctor.

About a month or so after signing this release the injured person went back to the doctor and was told that Progressive Insurance had stopped paying.

You can guess why. The injuries were more severe than the injured person initially thought. The doctor needed more time (i.e. visits) to help this person recover. The $1,500.00 paid by Progressive Insurance was used up before the injured person was released from care.

He called the Progressive Adjuster hoping to get some more money to pay for additional care. The answer, “You signed the Release there is nothing more we can do.” Bad news!

The other person who called our office did NOT sign the release. This person has since been back to the doctor and is now considering a referral to an orthopedic surgeon for problems with her knee.

It is interesting that Progressive Insurance offered about the same thing to each person for pain and suffering. It is also telling that they have “standard” Releases that they bring to initial meetings with injured people. They must know that certain dollar amounts will more likely than not get accepted by the injured party.

In some cases the first offer may have been a “good deal.” But, for the person who called our firm who now needs additional medical treatment it was only a “good deal” for Progressive Insurance.

Call Groth Law Firm, S.C. if you have any questions about offers from insurance companies.
