Here are the final tips to ensuring the best possible recovery from your accident.
7. Honesty is the best policy. Nothing will kill your claim faster than being caught in a lie. Be honest with all parties including the insurance company, doctor and your lawyer. Your credibility is crucial in resolving your case.
8. Don't hide information from your lawyer. Your lawyer can only help you if he or she has the complete picture. If there is something awkward or embarrassing to be dealt with, he or she will handle it. Don't put your lawyer in a bad situation by hiding something.
9. Don't exaggerate the impact of your injury. Insurance companies may hire private investigators, have someone engage you in conversation or may videotape you in your everyday routine to determine if you are faking the extent of your injuries. Don't play games when it comes to dealing with your injury case.
10. Hire an attorney who devotes his practice to personal injury cases. Numerous studies have shown that you're far more likely to end up with more money in the end with the assistance of a lawyer than going it alone. Lawyers who deal with personal injury cases are skilled at handling adjustors and insurance companies because they do it everyday. Hiring a lawyer lessens the amount of hassles you'll face, and will almost certainly net more money.
