Our FAQs
-
Not without the advice of a lawyer. There is a reason that most insurance companies insist that the statement be taped.
-
No. This is still your decision to make. The attorney can help you preserve the evidence, determine car values, get a rental car, get wage compensation going, make sure the medical bills are paid, and advise you regarding the applicable laws. Getting an attorney involved early can actually help you avoid litigation.
-
Usually. The attorney is experienced in dealing with the claims and can advise you and negotiate for you as your advocate. Often the attorney will only charge fees if they improve your recovery.
