I am writing in response to the settlement offer you presented on Settlement Offer Date, related to claim number Claim Number for the incident that occurred on Incident Date. After careful consideration, I must reject this offer as it does not meet my needs based on the severity and ongoing nature of my injuries.
Within the letter, you can indicate that you reject the offer and highlight why you deserve a higher settlement amount. You should also counter their reasons for offering the lowball initial offer. Your explanation behind these reasons can be critical in getting a better second offer from the claims adjuster.
If you decide to reject the settlement offer, you'll need to do so in writing. Provide a clear explanation of why you are rejecting the offer and include any supporting evidence that backs up your position. Your written response should be professional and concise; any inflammatory language could weaken your case.
Treat the following as a set of general guidelines: Gather complete information before you start writing. Describe your injuries and medical treatment. List your medical expenses, lost wages, and non-economic damages. Make a settlement demand. Include a deadline for legal action if you want to, but don't bluff.
If, after you have thought about reasonableness and the policy limit, you still think the offer you have is too low, you can reject it. Always reject a settlement offer in writing. Type a letter to your contact at the insurance company listing the reasons you think that their offer is too low.
Be sure you send your letter to the appropriate person, whether that be an insurance adjuster or an attorney. Make it clear that you are rejecting their initial offer and include your reasons for doing so. If they provided written reasons for their low initial figure, you should also respond to those in writing.
Close with a positive message "Thank you again for your time, and good luck in your efforts."
Your closing is the last impression you can make on the candidate in your rejection letter. In one or two short sentences, thank the candidate again for their time and wish them luck in their efforts. Example: "Thank you again for your time, and good luck in your efforts."
“Sincerely,” “Regards,” and “Appreciatively” are all appropriate closings for formal letters. “Take care,” “Have a good day,” and “Thanks!” work for a more informal approach.
