What's REALLY Happening with Auto Accident Claims

CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 has aired a three-part report that revealed the underhanded tactics that many insurance companies are using to save themselves billions of dollars by reducing claims paid to minor-impact crash victims. These tactics - dubbed the "Three Ds," delay, deny and defend - are discussed in the reports by former insurance industry insiders. CNN's investigative team's research and interviews revealed that multiple major insurance providers have employed these tactics during the course of the past 10 years. The result: 80 percent to 90 percent of accident victims settling without a fight for the small sums the companies offer. Often, these sums are as small as $50 and $100 when the victims are facing thousands of dollars lost.
