The Adjuster may try
to convince you that you should accept a
lower settlement. He may try to convince
you that you were at fault, partially or
completely. He may try to convince you that
you do not need a lawyer. At no time will
he be working in your behalf. His sole job
is to protect the insurance company and
he will use every technique he knows to
do so.
Although you should always be courteous,
you are not required to give any oral statement
to the other side’s insurance company. Listen
to what the Adjuster says and note the questions
he asked, but do not enter into a dialogue
with him. Tell your lawyer what was said
and have your lawyer evaluate your case.
Your lawyer will be able to direct you as
to necessary communications with the defendant’s
insurance company.
If you or a loved one has suffered an injury as a result of a vehicular accident, call the Law Office of James C. DeZao at 1-866-919-9229. The initial consultation is free of charge, and if we agree to handle your case, we will work on a contingency fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if there is a monetary recovery of funds. In many cases a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration date, known as a statute of limitations. Therefore, please call right away to ensure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation
