HAVE YOU SUFFERED WHIPLASH DUE TO AN AUTO ACCIDENT?

Posted by Nicolette Nicoletti

in Automobile Accidents

Sadly, during an auto accident, injuries are common. This is especially true for the neck and back.

SHOULD I GIVE THE INSURANCE COMPANY A RECORDED STATEMENT?

Posted by Nicolette Nicoletti

in Automobile Accidents

After an accident, the insurance company will surely ask for a recorded statement. Now, this may seem simple enough. But, you should still answer “no” when being asked to make a recorded statement immediately after an accident, especially without an attorney’s representation. Consequences It is important to understand that although the insurance company requesting the statement may seem friendly, their primary goal is to minimize your injuries and ultimately, the amount of money they compensate you with. The people that take these statements have a lot of experience. They know what questions to ask and know how to use your words against...
