If You Have Been Injured in an Accident, Beware of Insurance Company Investigators and Adjusters
If you have been involved in an accident that resulted in injuries, the insurance company for the other driver will begin working on their defense immediately. You may be thinking only of your injuries, your compromised ability to work and make money and how you are going to accomplish all of the other things you need to do on a daily basis. However, the insurance company for the other driver who caused your injuries will be quickly focused on defending your claim for damages and limiting what they have to pay.
Whether your accident was a serious accident with serious injuries or a less serious accident with moderate injuries, you may be getting calls from an insurance company adjuster or investigator who will ask you questions about the accident and your injuries that you are not in a proper state of mind to effectively answer. Sometimes, the adjuster or investigator is not completely honest about for whom they work and the purpose of their questions. But, you can be sure that they have the goal of limiting the compensation their insurance company has to pay for your injuries when they call and ask questions.
So what should you do if you have been injured in an accident and receive a call from an insurance company adjuster or investigator (or anyone else for that matter) about the accident and your medical condition? In order to protect yourself and your rights, you may want to call a personal injury attorney who can advise you of your rights and assist you through the process of dealing with insurance companies and obtaining the compensation that the law allows for you.
