If you’ve recently been involved in a car accident in Colorado, you may already know that one of the first steps after the collision is dealing with the insurance company.
Unfortunately, this isn’t always a smooth process. Many accident victims find that the insurance adjuster assigned to their case is difficult, unresponsive, or even working to reduce or deny valid claims.
At Chris Parks Law, we believe you deserve to be treated with respect and fairness throughout your personal injury claim process. If you're facing challenges with an insurance adjuster after a car accident, here’s what you need to know—and what you can do to protect your rights and your recovery.
An insurance adjuster is responsible for investigating the accident, assessing damage, and determining how much the insurance company should pay for your claim.
While adjusters often appear friendly and helpful, it’s important to remember one thing: they work for the insurance company—not for you. Their goal is to settle the claim for as little money as possible, which can lead to frustrating tactics like lowball offers, delayed communication, or outright denials.
Here are a few red flags that may indicate the insurance adjuster doesn’t have your best interests at heart:
Keep track of every conversation with the adjuster, including dates, times, and what was discussed. Save all emails and letters. This documentation can be crucial if problems escalate.
If you’re being pressured to accept a low settlement soon after the accident, be cautious. Initial offers rarely reflect the full extent of your injuries—especially if you haven’t completed treatment or received a full medical evaluation.
Insurance adjusters may ask for a recorded statement. Avoid providing one until you’ve spoken with a car accident attorney. What you say can be used later to undermine your claim.
In Colorado, you have the right to pursue full compensation for your damages—including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. Don’t let an adjuster mislead you about what you’re entitled to.
This is the most effective way to deal with an uncooperative adjuster. A skilled attorney can manage all communication, counter unfair tactics, and ensure your case is taken seriously.
