Your Own Insurance Company<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a car crash or other personal injury, most insurance companies require policyholders to report the incident. If your policy has such a requirement, you must reach out to the insurance company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However many car crash and other personal injury victims could have head injuries. Even a fender-bender car crash could cause an mTBI (moderate traumatic brain injury), or a concussion. People with head injuries aren\u2019t thinking clearly. Making matters worse, since adrenaline masks their pain, they often don\u2019t realize how badly they\u2019re hurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, keep conversations with insurance as brief as possible. At most, the insurance company requires a name, rank, and serial number report, not a dissertation. If your insurance company has a web portal that allows you to report accidents online, use it. If you must call an adjuster, keep this conversation as brief as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the adjuster presses you for information, say you aren\u2019t feeling well and your personal injury lawyer will fill in the details later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Other Insurance Company<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for dealing with the other party\u2019s insurance company are even more important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When New York personal injury lawyers hear \u201cinjury,\u201d they think \u201cfair compensation for victims.\u201d When insurance adjusters hear \u201cinjury,\u201d they think \u201cliability risk.\u201d They immediately go into damage control mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, if at all possible, never give a statement to the other party\u2019s insurance company. Telephone adjusters seem like affable people, but well-trained telephone adjusters could trick injured victims into making statements which damage their cases later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tip may be the hardest one to follow. We naturally want to tell our side of the story. You\u2019ll get a chance to do so, but that chance comes later in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On a related note, always reject insurance company settlement offers. This tip is hard to follow as well. Many insurance adjusters are relentless, and many initial offers are fair. However, this early in the process, determining fairness or unfairness is impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding the Right Personal Injury Lawyer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you look for a lawyer, focus on knowledge, dedication, and accessibility. Experienced lawyers have experience and a successful track record. Dedicated lawyers are primarily focused on the rights of injured victims, personal injury or otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Search thoroughly but search quickly. Injured victims have a limited amount of time to act. Once the deadline passes, which varies in different cases, victims lose their right to obtain compensation for their injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
