The balance that must be struck with every claim. GB expands the possible and redefines the industry. See how we go beyond. This means that even if a settlement was not possible before a lawsuit was filed, it might still be possible to get a superior outcome in the future before trial. The problem with Gallagher Bassett is not even so much the company as it is the company that hires them. Companies that outsource their claims adjusting often have unrealistic views as to the fair settlement values of the case.
In these cases, if you are an accident victim or an injured worker that wants to get full value for your case, you have no choice but to file a lawsuit or bring a comp claim. If you are reading this because you tried to deal with Gallagher Bassett on your own but you feel like you are banging your head up against a wall, you are not alone. Many of our clients tried to handle their own case on their own without a lawyer only to understand that without any real threat of a lawsuit or a workers' compensation hearing, reasoning with GB is futile.
There are exceptions to this rule. GB will craft how aggressive their strategy around their client. But, generally speaking, our lawyers find that it is hard to settle an accident or workers' compensation claim with Gallagher Bassett.
Because they are always trying to score points with their client by paying less for a claim than it is worth. While their adjusters are competent, they seem to have little independent authority. Victims that deal with GB on their own seem to struggle with getting their car in for a repairs appointment promptly and struggle to get a hold of the insurance adjuster who is always "out until next week.
But we have heard the stories from so many clients that they are hard to ignore. The key for accident attorneys is to flush them out to find out what their maximum settlement authority is on the file and then figure out whether that works for your client. More often than not, the answer is no and a lawsuit is the only solution.
GB typically gets more reasonable after a lawsuit is filed or a comp hearing is set. Companies using Gallagher do not have in-house counsel to defend their cases. So attorneys' fees become an issue after a lawsuit has been filed. This reality allows Gallagher Bassett's client to get serious about evaluating the case before it goes to the next level. Again, this is a broad generalization that varies by company and by the advice, and evaluation GB is giving on the settlement value of the claim.
