While State Farm continues to stiff claimants with low-ball offers, they simultaneously profit. See this article from Business Week: http://www.businessweek.com/news/2011-03-01/state-farm-profit-doubles-to-1-8-billion-on-underwriting.html
This is why anyone who tries to settle an injury case without an experienced attorney, needs to be cautioned. State Farm make extraordinary profits because they know the value of claims and prey on the victim's need for money. We specialize on a victim's need for justice, which of course, means a fair amount of money for the injuries and attendant losses-- not adding to a carrier's bottom line by accepting less than value offers.
This video is not far from the truth of how insurance adjusters deal with the claims of the injured. This is why only an experience lawyer can spare you the type of aggravation the victim of this accident had to endure as the adjuster "dealt" with her claims: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7udS_kxWS04
