Accidents can turn your life upside down in seconds. One moment you are driving carefully and the next you are injured, confused, and facing questions from people who were not even there. What makes it worse is when insurance companies try to flip the blame and paint you as the one responsible. This tactic is common and it can cost you your case if you do not act fast.
At Emert Law Firm, Brad Emert has spent more than three decades fighting for victims who were unfairly blamed. He knows the tricks insurance companies use and he knows how to expose the truth. When others twist the story, Brad protects your voice and brings the real facts to the front.
Why Insurance Companies Shift Blame
Most people do not realize how often insurance companies try to create doubt. Blame shifting is one of their strongest tools because the less they think you deserve, the less they have to pay.
Insurance companies may claim you were distracted, speeding, failing to yield, or not paying attention even when the evidence shows otherwise. They make these claims early because they hope you feel pressured, confused, or unsure. Their goal is simple. They want to limit your payout.
But when you have an experienced attorney on your side, these tactics do not work.
Your Story Matters More Than Their Assumptions
Your version of events is the starting point for your entire case. Brad listens to everything that happened from your perspective. He gathers the details that others overlook and uses them to build a strong foundation.
Many cases fall apart because victims feel intimidated and accept the insurance company’s version of the story. Brad makes sure this never happens to you. When there is confusion about what happened, he investigates, questions the evidence, and brings clarity to your claim.
How Emert Law Firm Protects Your Side of the Story
When blame is being twisted, you need proof and legal strength. Brad uses a clear and strategic process to uncover the truth.
Here is what he focuses on immediately
- Collecting accident scene evidence before anything changes
- Obtaining surveillance footage when available
- Taking statements from witnesses while memories are fresh
- Reviewing police reports for errors or missing details
- Examining vehicle damage to understand the impact
- Working with experts who can reconstruct the accident
- Gathering medical records to connect injuries to the event
Together these steps make it difficult for insurance companies to deny responsibility or push the blame onto you.
Why Acting Fast Makes a Difference
Time is one of your strongest tools. Evidence disappears quickly. Footage gets overwritten. Witnesses forget small details. Reports get harder to correct. The longer you wait, the easier it becomes for someone else to rewrite the story in their favor.
When you call Emert Law Firm right away, Brad steps in before the insurance company shapes the narrative. He protects your rights, your voice, and your future from the first step.
Common Blame Shifting Tactics You Should Expect
Insurance companies often use predictable strategies. Understanding them helps you stay prepared.
- Claiming you were partially at fault
- Suggesting your injuries were pre existing
- Saying the damage does not match your story
- Pressuring you to make recorded statements
- Using your own words against you
- Offering quick low settlements to avoid further investigation
Brad knows every one of these tactics. He stops them before they damage your case.
Your Case Deserves a True Investigation
Many accident victims assume the insurance company’s investigation is honest and complete. It often is not. Their goal is not fairness. It is saving money.
Brad conducts his own investigation that focuses on accuracy and truth. He does not leave your case in the hands of people who benefit from blaming you. Instead he builds a fact driven case that cannot be ignored.
Fighting for Compensation You Deserve
When blame is pushed onto you, the financial impact can be significant. That is why Brad works to recover every cost connected to your accident.
He helps clients recover compensation for:
- Medical bills
- Lost wages
- Future treatment
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
- Long term impacts on health and income
He fights to make sure you are never left with the burden of someone else’s mistake.
