What Are False Insurance Claims?
The legal definition of fraudulence is the deliberate attempt to gain profit from a deceitful act. Auto insurance fraud can be committed when someone files a false claim following a car accident. Filing a false auto accident claim to collect compensation for a nonexistent or pre-existing injury constitutes personal injury insurance fraud, a crime for which you should absolutely take legal action to protect yourself from.
While it’s possible for people to make up a false car insurance claim for an incident that didn’t occur, it is common for this type of fraud to be committed when a person has a valid claim. A person with a valid claim can be found guilty of fraudulent insurance claims if they try to depict that their injuries are more traumatic than they actually are, so they can try to obtain a higher settlement.

What Are Some Examples of Fraudulent Car Insurance Claims?
Common types of false car accident insurance claims often include claims for property damage after a staged car accident or a person filing a claim for a fake injury that they sustained after having been involved in a real car accident. Other types of fraudulent claims can include a person claiming pre-existing vehicle damage or medical conditions were caused by the accident at issue.
Regardless of the type of false claim being asserted against you, if you are suspicious of any claims stemming from a car accident in which you have been involved, be sure to bring such claims to the attention of your attorney right away so they can properly and swiftly take care of it on your behalf.
Can You Dispute an Auto Insurance Claim?
While it may sound intimidating, it is possible to dispute an insurance claim with the right legal guidance and strategy. An experienced attorney knows how to build a legal argument on your behalf to protect you against any fraudulent claims that have been made against you following a car accident.
How Do Car Insurance Companies Pay Out Claims?
How car insurance companies pay out claims varies from company to company, so be sure to inquire with your attorney about how you should anticipate receiving compensation from your car insurance claims. Some insurance companies will issue payment directly to the medical provider or repair shop, whereas other insurance companies prefer issuing claim payouts by writing a check directly to the claimant.
How To Get a Rental Car From an Insurance Claim
If you have been involved in a car accident and you are working with your insurance company to settle the claims, then it’s likely that you are eligible to receive a rental car through the insurance claim. Typically, when a person is involved in a car accident case, their vehicle requires maintenance for extensive periods of time in a repair shop. In this case, your insurance company should issue you a rental car in the meantime. However, entitlement to a rental vehicle may change based on whether you are at fault for the incident.
If you are wondering whether you are entitled to a rental car from your insurance company, you should discuss this with your attorney as well as your insurance adjuster. Your attorney will be able to help you understand the rights you have under your insurance policy, while your insurance adjuster will be able to help you set up receiving your rental.
Often, when you rent a vehicle through your insurance company, you pay the rental company directly and receive reimbursement from your insurance company. Be sure to discuss these aspects with your car accident attorney to ensure your insurance company is going to cover the costs.

Adam S. Kutner reviews and testimonials
“We were in a car accident – we were coming off of the interstate and were waiting – yielding at the exit and a car sped through the exit and smacked us in the rear.
It was definitely scary especially because we had our baby in the car. My husband and I and our baby in the back seat. We definitely – immediately went back in and checked on her to make sure she was okay.
We definitely had back pains my daughter had headaches. She kept holding her head and crying. It was pretty bad. I remember seeing a couple billboards and a friend of mine did say they had a pleasant experience with Adam Kutner, so we called them right up. They definitely were thorough, and you could tell just by talking to the people in the office that they genuinely cared about their clients.
They contacted us saying you know, explain the process on how the settlement gets done and about a week after that happened we had our settlement which was great and in my opinion Adam S. Kutner is the best attorney in Las Vegas.”
