Product Description
A practical, easy to read, easy to understand guide for anyone with an insurance claim to gather the necessary information, place a value on the claim and present the information to an insurance company representative in a compelling and convincing way. The book explains why, in most cases, a lawyer is not needed to collect insurance money. Included are discussions of bodily injuries, damage to cars, what information is needed to convince an insurance adjuster of the value of the claim and methods of negotiating for the best recovery possible. The best part is that people following these methods then get to keep all the money for themselves instead of sharing up to one-half of it with a lawyer. The book even covers relationships with lawyers, if one has already been hired.

 Wish I'd Read it Sooner January 3, 2000

4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I just finished reading 'Claims, How to Collect Insurance Money Without a Lawyer' and wish I had read it sooner. I am a single parent school teacher and a couple of years ago one of my sons was involved in an accident that was totally the other driver's fault. I relied completely on my insurance salesman to advise us on what was fair, just and due my son. Now, after having read this book I discover that we settled considerably short. Both physical recovery and financial recovery were challenging for my son, and I know now it should not have been quite so difficult.Actually, the greater value of this book to me is that it serves as a wonderful primer for understanding my own insurance. I had no idea how truly uneducated I have been. At this time I am not involved in any insurance claim nor litigation, but should I be involved in an accident, I will certainly have a strong foundation in understanding what I should do and in the terminology being used. Also, the next time I renew my policy I will do so with a great deal more intelligence. The book is a fast read and is organized in such a way as to make returning to look up any particular topic quite easy. As soon as I finish typing this review I plan to call some friends of mine to recommend the book to them.

Thanks to the useful information in Gordon Smith's book, I made $1500.00 on an auto insurance claim. It's easy to understand every subject in this book. I'm a satisfied customer. THANK YOU!
A Lucky Day For Me November 25, 1999
It was a lucky day for me when I found the book called Claims; How to collect insurance money without a lawyer. I found the book listed on the publishers website. Although my claim was not of the million dollar variety, this book made it possible for me to collect and organize the information and how to deal with the insurance company's representative to bring my claim to a successful and satisfactory conclusion. This book is easy to read, easy to understand with directions and suggestions which are simple to follow. Claims was fun to read and I recommend it to anyone involved in an insurance claim whether they have a lawyer or not. I'm happy to see it listed on Amazon.com.
Help Has Finally Arrived! June 6, 2001

After much difficulty, I finally feel prepared and secure about handling my insurance claim. The book provided detailed information about my responsibilities and about all materials I need in order to negotiate and settle my claim. The book is easy to read and the author makes you feel as though he is sitting there talking to you. I recommend this book to anyone who is presently involved in a claim or anyone who carries insurance and may one day be involved in an accident.
 Not enough info. on injury claims. June 3, 2001
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Mr. Smith gives good information on how to negotiate for the best car claim, but he is very misleading on how to settle a personal injury claim. He also is very biased for the insurance industry and only tries to steer you toward a small claim. If you want to know about a personal injury claim, this book in't for you.
