• Don’t put off receiving medical care. If you wait to see a doctor, the insurance company can use delays to dispute your medical condition.
• Don’t accept the first settlement you receive. Your personal injury lawyer should always review any settlement agreement before you sign.
• Don’t give the insurance company a recorded statement. Permanent recordings can harm your case if you accidentally contradict yourself.
• Avoid discussing your injuries or insurance claim with anyone other than your attorney.
• Be careful making public posts or posting photos on social media, as these could be used as evidence against you in your case.
