Everyone’s safety is of the utmost importance. Check if everyone is alright and call the ambulance if needed. After making sure that everyone is safe, it is time to document the accident. Taking photos will allow the drivers to gather relevant data about the circumstances of the accident

Taking photos will help drivers:

• 
  Deal with insurance companies. Being involved in an accident where the other driver is involved, gives you the right to ask for compensation. It is possible that the company of the guilty driver will try to partially blame the victim or refuse to make compensatory payments. In this case, clear photos of the accident can become undeniable evidence that will resolve any dispute. If the company still refuses to pay, talk with a lawyer and provide the photos.
• Gather crucial info about the circumstances of the accidents. Taking photos of the accident scene, the surrounding area and road conditions will help the authorities determine who and what caused the accident. Specialized criminalists can analyze all details and assemble the bigger picture.
• Document the injuries. Again, this must be done in order to receive fair compensation. Take photos of injuries, bruises, cuts, burns, lacerations. Make sure to keep all medical receipts.

I absolutely enjoy every aspect of this job – the investigation into the claim, the pursuit of fraud, getting into the mind of what the insured is doing, and ultimately protecting our insured from those who are engaging in criminal activity.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
November 06, 2019

Mark Di Lauro, a member of the Mercury Insurance Special Investigations Unit (SIU) team, was recently named the 2019 Investigator of the Year by the Southern California Chapter of International Association of Special Investigation Units (IASIU). The highly prestigious IASIU Awards are given on an annual basis to individuals who have displayed outstanding investigative services to their organizations, as well as to the industry as a whole.

Di Lauro, who has been an investigator for Mercury’s SIU for nearly three years, was recognized for his work examining a policyholder’s reported water loss. His investigation revealed that the loss had, in fact, been staged and his findings saved Mercury nearly $50,000. Additionally, the policyholder was sentenced to 17 years in prison after a criminal trial and ordered to pay more than $900,000 in restitution to various insurance carriers.

“I am very proud of the award,” said Di Lauro. “I would like to think that it not only encompasses this particular claim, but a culmination of claims that we investigate that result in millions of dollars of savings for our policyholders each year. I firmly believe that this was a team award for Mercury SIU and not just my individual award.

“I absolutely enjoy every aspect of this job – the investigation into the claim, the pursuit of fraud, getting into the mind of what the insured is doing, and ultimately protecting our insured from those who are engaging in criminal activity.”

Mercury’s SIU, which was founded in 1978, consists of 40 seasoned investigators in 11 states who work to catch the fraudulent claims filed every year by white-collar con artists, shady doctors and lawyers, and even the occasional celebrity. Insurance fraud, the second most costly white-collar crime in America behind tax evasion, accounts for at least 10 percent of property and casualty claims, and cost citizens billions of dollars each year. The SIU exists to prevent phony payouts and exaggerated claims stemming from staged accidents, arson, auto and identity theft, and padding of medical expenses, to keep rates low for Mercury policyholders.

The public can do its part to help lower insurance costs by reporting suspicious activity to the National Insurance Crime Bureau.

“Drivers can easily obtain cheaper insurance rates if they apply several smart tips. For more ways and strategies that can help drivers lower their insurance premiums, visit our website”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
November 06, 2019

Lower-auto-insurance.com has launched a new blog post that presents several smart tips that can help drivers get cheaper car insurance.

For more info and free quotes, please visit: http://lower-auto-insurance.com/tips-keeping-car-insurance-rates-low/

In the past years, the price of car insurance has continued to raised constantly. Obtaining cheaper car insurance is not impossible for drivers that know what they are doing.

To get cheaper car insurance, drivers are recommended to follow the next tips:

• 
  Look for discounts. Policyholders can check what discounts are available at their insurers and for which ones they are eligible. Usually, insurance companies will provide discounts for installed safety devices, low mileage, good drivers, good students, or bundling policies.
• Keep a clean driving record. Insurance companies will reward drivers that manage to stay ticket-free and accident-free for a certain period of time. Some insurers will provide a discount after three years, while others will wait even five years for a driver to keep his driving record clean.
• Buy the right car. If a driver wants to pay cheaper insurance rates, then he should try avoiding insuring expensive sports vehicles, limousines or muscle cars. Instead, they should try to insure a slightly used vehicle that has a high safety rating and several safety devices already installed.
• Maintain a good credit score. In most states, the laws allow the insurers to take the drivers’ credit score into account when they determine their insurance rates. Insurance companies claim they found a correlation between the drivers’ credit score and the chances for them to file for a claim. As a result, drivers with a poor credit score are more likely to file for a claim. For this reason, policyholders with poor credit score will pay more on their premiums compared to those that have good or excellent credits score.
• Consider dropping full coverage. Policyholders that drive older vehicles, should consider dropping full coverage in certain situations. For example, if a vehicle’s value is less than ten insurance rates payments, then keeping full coverage on that vehicle Is useless.
• Compare online quotes. It is recommended to compare online car insurance quotes at least two times per year. By doing so, drivers can check if their current insurance provider is still offering competitive insurance premiums or not.
