How our lawyers handle an Allstate injury claim varies depending on Allstate’s handling tactics for each unique case. Do not be deceived by the company’s slogan: “You’re in good hands.”
Allstate is the nation’s fourth-largest issuer of auto insurance premiums and second-largest writer of homeowner insurance policies. Their significant financial obligations mean they diligently deny as many injury claims as possible by negating liability.
At Marcus & Mack, our Pennsylvania car accident lawyers confidently navigate Allstate’s methods of delay and denial, successfully securing substantial compensation for Allstate injury claimants’ financial and emotional losses following an accident or wrongful death.

Our general process of handling Allstate accident injury claims begins with understanding and compassion for your situation. We handle claims like yours all the time and are committed to fully listening and communicating with you about your case.
Before filing your claim with Allstate, it’s important that you meet with our attorneys to evaluate your case and compose a plan of action for recovery and compensation. Your focus should be on undergoing all necessary medical care. Our firm will outline our methods for obtaining a fair settlement.
Our first purpose is to protect you and your legal rights. Ensuring you do not fall victim to shady insurance tactics that Allstate may use to get you to say something they can use to deny your claim, our lawyers will manage all communications with Allstate. Managing communications entails:
If Allstate or other insurers call you, refer them to your personal injury lawyer. Once we establish a lawyer-client relationship, they are not allowed to contact you any further directly.
To prove negligence and Allstate’s liability for your claim, our team will locate and collect any relevant evidence to your case. Examples of evidence collected in different Allstate injury claims include:
To establish lost income sustained from missing work due to your injuries, your lawyer will require documentation, like pay stubs and tax returns, to prove your income losses.
After collecting all the evidence, our personal injury attorneys will analyze your case closely. Our investigation aims to pinpoint critical details to prove negligence and establish Allstate’s liability in your injury claim.

Part of our comprehensive investigation into your claim involves consulting with relevant experts. Medical experts can provide helpful testimony regarding the severity of injuries and future medical costs. An occupational therapist can explain how the injuries have affected your daily life.
A vocational therapist will validate permanent disabilities and the limitations or restrictions involved. Accident reconstruction experts can pinpoint liability. Expert testimony can lend significant weight to proving actual damages, helping to maximize your financial compensation.
Valuing your claim involves determining all losses, including economic and non-economic damages. We will calculate these using receipts, invoices, billing statements, and your detailed post-accident journal.
Ensure you give our attorneys any documentation of spending your money because of the accident. You shouldn’t be responsible for financial hardship that wasn’t even your fault.
Damages we often seek and obtain compensation for in an Allstate injury claim are as follows:
Our attorneys advise all accident victims to keep an injury or post-accident journal to document pain and suffering. Non-economic damages are more challenging to quantify because they don’t come with a receipt.
Detailed entries about pain levels, decreased quality of life, loss of the ability to perform daily tasks, and emotional distress go a long way in establishing these damages.
Allstate is notorious for poor claims practices. One such practice is sending lowball first settlement offers. Our skilled personal injury attorneys are prepared for this standard tactic. We will advise you on whether Allstate offered a fair settlement or if we should fight for additional compensation.
If you choose not to accept Allstate’s first offer (you likely won’t), our team will negotiate additional compensation on your behalf. The process may involve several rounds of negotiations before settling on a fair number. Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who regularly negotiate with Allstate claim adjusters.
If negotiations to settle your Allstate injury claim are unsuccessful, our lawyers will initiate further litigation. The process includes:
Most Allstate injury claims are settled outside of litigation. The likelihood of ever stepping foot in a courtroom is minuscule. However, our team has trial experience and is prepared to take your claim to court to ensure you come out successful.
