Frequently Asked Questions for Palm Beach Accident Lawyers

 


Q: The insurance adjuster wants me to give a recorded statement about my car accident.  Should I give one?

A: Not without first talking with a Palm Beach car accident attorney.  You could end up saying something that will damage your case and the unfortunate thing is that once you “go on record” it is nearly impossible to retract what you say.

It is common for an insurance adjuster to contact you right after a collision.  If you were injured in the Florida car accident, you might be unaware of the full extent of your injuries.  The severity of an injury is not always readily apparent.  Sometimes it takes weeks for you to know all of your injuries and the treatment that will be required.

You might be told that the recorded statement is just part of the process.  While a recorded statement is convenient for the insurer, it can be detrimental to you. Insurance adjusters know the law and they often use tactics to minimize your claim.

Before you do anything, such as give a recorded statement or sign papers, contact our office. You should also order our book, Smart Lawyers, Smart Clients - Wear Clean Underwear.
