The Chubb Auto Claims Process
After an accident, it is crucial to remember to stay calm, record the facts, and seek medical and legal help. Staying calm is essential because it can help you lower your stress levels as you come to terms with what just happened and call for medical emergent care at the scene of the accident. Recording the facts will be helpful to build a solid case for monetary recovery. Seeking help, especially from lawyers, is necessary because most victims do not have the time, resources, or experience to fight large insurance companies aggressively when communicating with defending law firms representing the driver responsible for causing damages.
