Businesses love to hand you a waiver before you jump on a trampoline or do an obstacle course. They want you to think that piece of paper makes them untouchable if you get hurt.

When I was an insurance defense attorney we loved waivers too. But here is the truth. A waiver does not protect a business from their own negligence. If the equipment was broken. If they failed to inspect it. If they did not follow their own safety rules. You can still have a claim even with a signed waiver.

Do not let them scare you into walking away just because you signed something.

If you or your child were hurt at a trampoline park or similar venue in Arizona, call me. (480) 576-6147. Free consultation.

The insurance company slides a quick settlement offer across the table right after your crash. It looks tempting when you have medical bills piling up.

When I worked on the insurance defense side fast settlements were our best friend. We knew that if we got you to sign early we would save the company thousands. Because your injury might get worse. You might need more treatment. You might not be able to go back to work as soon as you thought. But once you sign that release the case is closed forever.

Do not sign anything until someone who knows the system reviews it. A 15 minute call can tell you if that offer is fair or if you are leaving serious money on the table.

The physical pain of an injury is bad enough. But lying in bed knowing you are not getting a paycheck is a totally different kind of stress.

When I worked for the insurance companies I saw how they calculated lost wages. They would only look at your base salary and completely ignore your overtime, your bonuses, and any future earning capacity. A nurse who picks up extra shifts. A construction worker who works weekends. They would try to pay you as if you worked a flat 40 hours a week.

That is not fair and it is not accurate. If your injury is keeping you from working, call me. I know how to calculate the real number and I know how to fight for every dollar of it.

You get into a car accident here in the Valley. The other driver apologizes, says they will handle it, and asks to just exchange info and skip calling the police to save time.

When I was a police officer responding to crashes I saw people do this all the time. It feels like the nice thing to do. But when I switched to insurance defense I saw exactly what happens next. Without a police report the other driver's insurance company will claim their driver was not at fault. They will say there is no proof. They will deny your claim entirely.

Even a minor fender bender needs a police report. That document is your only objective proof that the accident happened and who caused it.

If you were in an accident and did not call the police it is not too late to get help. Call me and I will tell you if we can still build a strong case.

A lot of people make a huge mistake after a crash. They refuse to use their own health insurance because they think the at fault driver's insurance is going to pay the hospital directly.

They will not. Not upfront.

When I was an insurance defense attorney I watched this delay people's treatment for months. By the time they finally saw a doctor the insurance company was already arguing that the gap in treatment meant the injury was not that serious.

Use your health insurance. Get treated now. We will sort out who pays what later. Your health comes first. The legal stuff is my job.

People always hesitate to call a lawyer after a crash because they say I am not the suing type. I completely understand that. Nobody wants to feel like they are being greedy or causing trouble.

But let me tell you what I saw when I worked on the insurance defense side. We loved hearing that phrase. The moment someone said they were not the suing type we knew we could offer them less and they would probably take it.

Filing a claim is not about being greedy. It is about not paying for someone else's mistake out of your own pocket. The insurance company is counting on you feeling too embarrassed to fight back.

Do not let them. Call me. (480) 576-6147. Free consultation.

You think you are fully covered because you pay your auto insurance every month. Think again.

Arizona has one of the highest rates of uninsured drivers in the country. That means if one of them hits you your own insurance company might not automatically cover your medical bills and lost wages unless you have uninsured motorist coverage on your policy.

Most people have no idea if they have it or not. Check your policy today. And if an uninsured driver already hit you in Arizona, call me. We know how to make your own insurance company pay what they owe you.

5 mistakes that kill your car accident claim in Arizona. Most people do not even realize they made number 3.

Saying "I feel fine" at the scene. Skipping the police report. Posting on social media after your crash. Waiting too long to see a doctor. And accepting the first offer without talking to a lawyer.

I see all five of these every single week from people calling my office. The worst part is they did not know any of these were mistakes until it was already too late.

Save this. Share it with someone who drives in Arizona. And if you already made one of these mistakes, call me. It might not be too late to fix it.

5 things your insurance company knows that you do not. Number 2 is how they save millions every year.

They know what your case is worth before you do. They have a hidden reserve fund for your claim. Your recorded statement is for their protection not yours. They know people without lawyers accept way less. And they know I used to work for them.

I know every play in their book because I helped write it. Now I use that knowledge to fight for accident victims in Arizona.

Share this with someone who needs to know. And if you are dealing with an insurance company right now, call me. (480) 576-6147. Free consultation.

This is the most common phone call I get. Someone gets rear-ended on the 202 or the 60 here in the Valley. They go to the ER. They have real back and neck pain. The insurance adjuster calls and says they are only offering a fraction of the medical bills because it is just a soft tissue injury.

When I was defending these cases for the insurance company, calling an injury just soft tissue was playbook number one. It sounds harmless but it is a weapon. They use that phrase to justify ignoring your pain, cutting off your physical therapy, and offering a check that barely covers your ER copay.

A back injury can cost you thousands in future medical care and lost time at work. Do not let an adjuster sitting at a desk tell you what your pain is worth.

If they tried to lowball you using this line, call me before you accept anything. (480) 576-6147. Free consultation.

There are three words that can save your personal injury case after a crash. Contact my lawyer.

When you are standing on the side of the road after a wreck your adrenaline is pumping and you just want to be polite. The other driver asks if you are okay. The police officer asks what happened. You say something like I think I am alright or it was probably my fault. You are being nice. But those words go into a report and the insurance company will use them to pay you less.

You do not have to be rude. Just say you need to talk to your lawyer first. That is it.
