SHOULD YOU TALK TO LAWYER BEFORE REPORTING CAR ACCIDENT CLAIM TO INSURANCE?
The answer to this question mostly depends on the seriousness of the accident. If there is just vehicle damage, there may be no need to talk to a lawyer before reporting the claim to your insurance company. Many such cases are simple and can be handled on your own.
However, if you have been injured in a MN car crash, it is a good idea to talk to a lawyer first. You need to understand your rights before talking to any insurance company in an injury case. Of course, if there is any possibility of criminal charges against you or anyone in your vehicle, you should contact a lawyer immediately.
In either event, don’t give a recorded statement to any insurance company until you have spoken with a lawyer. Also, don’t accept any money from an insurance company until you talk to a lawyer – especially if you may have been injured.
Most importantly, if you were seriously injured in the car accident, it is best to talk to an experienced lawyer as soon as possible. The insurance coverage issues can be complicated, and you need to know your rights. You can harm your interests if you say the wrong thing or say something the wrong way to the auto insurance company. Every case is different. An experienced car accident lawyer will help you understand the issues in your case. Our job is to make sure you get all available benefits and compensation.
