How to File a Claim Against Nationwide Insurance

If you have suffered an injury in an accident caused by the negligent action of a Nationwide Insurance policyholder, you may be entitled to compensation through their policy. Under North Carolina law, those who suffer injuries from an at-fault driver have a right to make a claim for compensation through the at-fault driver’s insurance company. Additionally, if you have suffered injuries caused by a driver with no insurance, you may need to file a claim with your own insurance policy. If you have purchased uninsured or underinsured driving insurance with Nationwide Insurance, you will need to file a claim with them.

Nationwide Insurance’s Mobile Phone Application

Like most large car insurance companies, Nationwide Insurance provides customers with a mobile application to make the claim filing process more convenient. Customers can file claims within the phone application. They can write a brief description of what happened during the accident and upload photos of the accident. Soon after submitting the claim, a claim adjuster will often contact the claimant and to ask additional questions.

During the initial claim process, a Nationwide Insurance adjuster who is assigned to your claim may call you and ask you to make a written or oral statement about the claim. They usually ask you if you have had to seek medical treatment or if you have been physically injured in the accident. If you have suffered moderate to severe injuries, it is wise to speak with a Charlotte car accident attorney as soon as possible. Many times, the shock of the car accident makes it difficult for those injured to make accurate statements regarding the accident possibly minimizing injuries or worse, implying they may have been at fault in some way that may lead to a claim denial.

At Arnold & Smith, PLLC our Charlotte car accident attorneys can help you craft a statement that accurately describes what happened in your accident without unintentionally admitting fault.

Resonable expectations were set and the results far exceeded them. I was well informed, prepared and supported by Matt and his team. They provided comfort and confidence, as well as a great outcome. I can't possibly describe how grateful I truly am for what they have done for me. Matt was recommended to be by another trusted individual and I believe that was a blessing. Anthony
★★★★★
I can't say enough great things about Matthew Arnold and his team. I had a very complicated, high-conflict case which took a lot of time and effort on everyone's part, and I feel like my case was given the time and attention it required. Matt Arnold is a great attorney, and I would go as far as saying one of the best in Charlotte, if not the best. Bree is also amazing. Amber
