Online CLE: 10 Ways to Prepare Top Civil Injury Settlement Demands

By Lynne DeVenny

If you think you missed this new webinar offered through The Paralegal Mentor, you're in luck. The course was postponed due to scheduling issues. The new date is Wednesday, March 30, 2011, at 1:00 p.m. EST, and you can register at http://settlementdemands.com/.

When the course was announced, Vicki Voisin received an email from a paralegal who works as a Senior Claims Specialist for a major malpractice insurance carrier:

It would mean so much to me to receive a well written settlement brochure that tells me exactly how my insured breached a standard of care that proximately caused $x damages and how Plaintiff intended to prove it. Settlement could be achieved much quicker!

During this class, I'm going to share some of my hard-won experience, including how and why I developed case evaluation sheets, what I learned from working with a former insurance adjuster, and the most repeated mistakes I've seen in settlement packages (usually inherited at the litigation stage) over the years.
