Employment related claims are normally addressed through Worker's Compensation insurance. Insurance adjusters, law enforcement representatives, investigators and attorneys may attempt to question you about your accident to establish who is at fault. Often, these individuals may try to obtain some sort of admission from you so which can drastically effect your legal rights. It is normally best not to give a statement to anyone until you have consulted with an attorney who represents your interests. Civil and criminal penalties may apply if you are found to be liable for causing injury.
Many seniors experience difficulty in dealing with insurance companies when injury occurs.
Adjusters score points with the insurance company if they settle cases for less than their potential value. The less money that an insurance company pays on a claim, the more profit they make. Adjusters succeed to the extent that they are able to reduce the value of potential claims like yours. Don't assume that you do not have a case if an adjuster tells you this, or offers you a quick but low settlement offer. It may be important that you contact an attorney as soon as possible after an accident to obtain advice regarding your rights, responsibilities, and potential claims for injuries to yourself, your car, your passengers, and any other damages.
