How to Respond When Insurance Companies Ask About Your Injuries

Jacob McKenzie explains how insurance companies may try to reduce a claim by asking right away if a person is hurt. He shares that many people say they feel fine at the scene because they are shaken up and their body has not settled yet. Pain can appear the next day, such as headaches, neck pain, or back pain. He advises that when the wreck has just happened, it is honest and reasonable to say that you are shaken up and do not know the full extent of your injuries yet.

Why Injured People Should Have an Attorney Handle Their Claim

Jacob McKenzie explains why anyone who is injured or thinks they might be injured should have an attorney guide them through the process. He notes that property damage claims are usually simple when liability is accepted, since adjusters know the cost of repairs and handle these issues every day. But injuries are completely different because a persons health and safety matter far more than a damaged car. He points out that the law recognizes this difference, which is why an attorney can protect an injured persons rights and help them pursue the support they need.
