Attorney Explains Types of Car Insurance Louisiana Drivers Should Know About (Part A)

Insurance Company’s Obligation to Record Statements After Bad Car Accidents

Bad car accidents often leave many victims in a vulnerable state, which an insurance company is no sympathizer to and will take this chance to get you to accept a low settlement offer. During this time, understand that you have legal rights that you should protect. Your Louisiana law firm, known as The Young Firm, helps car accident victims nationwide get the compensation they need and deserve after a road crash.

Recorded Statements after Bad Car Accidents

Shortly after you have been in a serious car accident, you can expect to talk to an insurance adjuster. Be aware that the insurance adjuster you talk to might seem friendly and empathetic to your situation. Do not buy into it.

The truth is, this is a well thought-out tactic that the insurance adjuster uses so you will reveal more information about the accident or your medical condition than is necessary.

When you first talk to the insurance adjuster, there may be a notification that your call may be recorded for quality assurance purposes. It is your legal right to reject this action and request that the insurance adjuster do not record your conversation; however, even if you ask for the conversation not to be recorded, the insurance adjuster will probably take notes of the conversation.

An insurance adjuster has the obligation to look out for the insurance company, not you, and will do everything in his or her power to devalue your settlement. That is why it is imperative to answer only straightforward questions about your accident and not to go into too much detail about how the accident happened.

Specifically for residents living in Louisiana, a law firm that specializes in auto accidents can guide you in the right direction as to how you should handle your injury claim. You might be in a situation in which you need a resolution and justice immediately, but accepting a settlement offer from an insurance company most likely only will hurt you later when you need more money to treat and cope with your injuries.

Instead, you should meet with an attorney from The Young Firm who can help you navigate your claim's process and pursue a settlement for present and future expenses related to your road crash. Although based in New Orleans, Louisiana, this law firm helps victims seek justice and win fair and full settlements throughout the state.
