The Insurance Company Isn’t on Your Side—Here’s Who Is
You got hit by a work vehicle—a delivery truck, a rideshare driver, a semi-truck, something with a company name on the side. Your car’s banged up, maybe your neck or back is hurting, and now the calls start rolling in. The insurance rep sounds nice. They say they’ll “take care of you.” They ask a few questions. They might even send a check.
But here’s the truth you need to know now: the insurance company is not on your side.
Their job isn’t to help you. Their job is to protect their bottom line. And if you trust them to “handle everything,” you could end up settling for way less than you’re owed—or walking away with nothing.
That might sound harsh, but it’s reality. The system is built to protect companies, not crash victims. And if you were hit by a commercial vehicle, there’s way more at stake than just a quick payout. You could be entitled to thousands, even tens of thousands, in compensation—but only if you’ve got someone in your corner.
Let’s break down why trusting the insurance company is risky, what tactics they use to shortchange victims, and who you should be talking to if you want to protect your health, your money, and your future.
Insurance Companies Are Trained to Pay You Less
It doesn’t matter how nice the adjuster sounds. The entire business model of an insurance company is built around one thing: keeping payouts as low as possible. They’re not trying to be fair. They’re trying to settle your claim fast, before the real costs of your accident come to light.
Here’s how they do it:
-
Offering a quick payout before you know the full extent of your injuries
-
Pressuring you to sign a release so you can’t sue later
-
Recording your statement and twisting your words against you
-
Claiming the crash was your fault—or partly your fault
-
Blaming “pre-existing conditions” to avoid paying for new injuries
They may tell you a lawyer isn’t necessary. They may say hiring one will delay the process. But what they’re really doing is trying to get you alone—so they can control the outcome.
They Work for the Company—Not for You
If the crash involved a commercial vehicle, things get even messier. The driver might have been working for a delivery service, a rideshare platform, a local business, or a national trucking company. And the insurance reps aren’t just protecting the driver—they’re protecting the brand.
That means their legal team is already involved. They’re gathering evidence, reviewing footage, and preparing to argue that you don’t deserve much. Maybe they’ll say your injuries aren’t serious. Maybe they’ll dig into your medical history. Whatever their strategy, it’s not about helping you—it’s about protecting themselves.
And unless you’ve got legal backup, you’re at a huge disadvantage.
Here’s Who Is on Your Side
You need someone whose only job is to fight for you. Someone who knows how these systems work, how these companies operate, and how to push for a settlement that actually covers your:
-
Medical bills
-
Missed work
-
Long-term care
-
Pain and suffering
-
Emotional distress
-
Future expenses

Don’t Settle for Less Just Because It’s Easier
We get it. You’re tired. You’ve got enough on your plate. The idea of hiring a lawyer might feel like more drama. But here’s the thing—settling early doesn’t make the pain go away. It just means you’re paying for it out of pocket instead of holding the company accountable.
The injuries could get worse. The bills will definitely keep coming. And by the time you realize that quick check wasn’t enough, it might be too late to do anything about it.
That’s why you don’t wait. You get someone on your team now—someone who knows how to deal with these companies and isn’t afraid to take them on.
