Car accidents can inflict long-term hardship onto the life and livelihood of a victim. If you were involved in a car accident and you carry AAA insurance, you may be entitled to compensation from AAA.
AAA is a personalized insurance company that provides a variety of coverage options to its clients. Because dealing with AAA and its filing process may be difficult for first-time filers, a car accident settlement attorney may be helpful for getting adequate retribution for your injuries.

Like many other insurance companies, the first step to receiving compensation for your injuries is to file a claim with AAA itself. Insurance is designed to protect drivers financially from devastating accidents. When these accidents do occur, victims can submit a claim through the appropriate insurance company. Through this claim, you are essentially asking your insurance provider to cover and pay for your expenses as promised.
According to AAA itself, the filing process has a few different steps and utilizes technology-based platforms.
Insurance claims can be filed on AAA’s mobile application, website, or through the telephone. If you feel you have a claim with AAA and want to file, you must first begin by contacting the insurance company to find out whether you are covered and the deadline for filing your claim. During this conversation, be sure to ask about the documentation needed for filing, including any required estimates or reports.
Afterwards, you should complete your claim forms and submit it through your chosen AAA avenue. Make sure to include any documentation your insurer requests. After you submit your claim, it will be reviewed by a claims adjuster to make sure that your damages are covered by your policy.
If your claim is approved, a claims adjuster will determine the payout due to you and you will receive a payment. Your first payment may simply be an advance of the total amount owed to you, as you may receive this payout in multiple payments.
If you have been injured or sustained property damage during a car accident, you may want to contact a personal injury lawyer near you before accepting any AAA settlement offer. Insurance companies may invertedly take advantage of your inexperience and offer you a less-than-favorable offer to make you settle. If you accept a settlement offer and then later find out that you could have received more, you may be left with an unsatisfactory amount to cover your damages.

While proceeding to trial may be the ideal avenue for redress in some cases, many car accident victims choose to settle with their insurance companies outside of court. If you are interested in settling your AAA car accident claim, an attorney may be able to help you. This is because experienced car accident settlement lawyers know how to do the following things:
- Determine Fault: Determining fault is a critical step for those who wish to seek redress for their injuries and damages. Different states use various statutes with specific rules for determining who is responsible in an automobile collision. Some states have “at-fault” statutes, while others utilize “no-fault” ones. The fault allocation of your case may be different depending on what type of jurisdiction the accident occurred in.
- Assess Your Damages and Options: Although there are some generic factors to consider when determining your damages, the calculation itself may still prove to be difficult for individuals unfamiliar with the insurance system. A car accident attorney may be able to help you seek many different types of damages from AAA, including uncommon ones.
- Navigate the Filing Process: As previously explained, AAA has a specific process for filing an insurance claim with their company. Even if you are not a customer of AAA, you may be forced to deal with their extensive filing procedures if you were involved in an accident with another driver covered by AAA. An experienced personal injury attorney may be able to help you speed up this process by completing and submitting your paperwork in a timely manner.
- Potentially Negotiate a Fair Settlement: When dealing with AAA and other large insurance companies, experience and knowledge is extremely important, especially when attempting to negotiate a fair settlement. An experienced lawyer may be able to assist you in conducting negotiations with the insurance company to help you seek a fair settlement amount.
Filing a claim with AAA can be difficult for first-time filers. If you are new to AAA and its filing procedures, you should contact an attorney to help you through the process
