By that point, the insurance company has already built its file, locked in your recorded statement, and set an internal reserve amount on your claim. You&#8217;re playing defense.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>When you bring in an attorney before the first offer, the dynamic changes completely.

That reserve is based on what they know at that point. If you haven&#8217;t documented your injuries properly, haven&#8217;t preserved evidence, or have already made statements on record, the reserve gets set low.
