What You Say On Record Might Hurt Your Virginia Injury Claim

You probably never imagined it would be so complicated to obtain a settlement for your car accident injuries.

Insurance exists to protect us from loss. You pay your premium on time with the understanding that when you need to use your coverage, it will be there for you. If you have been injured in a Virginia car accident, you may have discovered that it is not always so straightforward. Whether you are dealing with the other driver’s insurance company or your own, you are most likely facing an uphill battle.

At this point, you may have many questions going through your mind, including – should I let the insurance adjuster record my statement? You want to trust that the adjuster is looking out for you, but something in the back of your mind is saying that you need to be cautious. Listen to that small voice.

Insurance adjusters are trained and they know what questions to ask. 

Adjusters are looking to capture you on tape, saying something that could damage your claim. Even a simple question like – are you injured? – can become a problem. You may not yet know the extent of your injuries. If you give a recorded statement that you are not hurt, but an injury later surfaces, you may have negatively impacted your case.

Remember, you do not have to give a recorded statement. Politely decline the adjuster’s request and contact an experienced Virginia car accident attorney.
