Subject: Early offers
What a wonderful idea. I could make an offer to the insurance company of what I would accept for my injury and my pain and even for the suffering I would have to go through if they gave me any lip. Of course I would explain that my offer would not be loaded for my attorney expenses or lost work time, or having to be away from my family, etc. etc. I am sue they would agree that I was being fair. A lump sum of money up front to me would save them from have to pay bookkeeping costs and doing audits and stuff. And the lump sum I would ask for would really be less than if they had to pay out over time because I would make interest on the money so I would pass the savings on to them. ¿What do you think, amigo?
