These common errors can hurt your claim and reduce your compensation.

Admitting fault at the scene

Can be used against you to reduce or deny your claim

Exchange information only. Let insurance investigators determine fault.

Not seeing a doctor immediately

Insurance may claim injuries are unrelated to accident

Visit a doctor within 24-72 hours, even if you feel fine.

Giving recorded statements too early

Insurance adjusters may use your words against you

Consult a lawyer before giving any recorded statements.

Accepting the first settlement offer

First offers are typically 2-3x lower than fair value

Have a lawyer review any settlement offer before accepting.

Posting on social media

Posts can be used to dispute your injuries

Avoid posting about the accident or your activities.
