No. The insurance adjuster is not on your side. He or she will make every effort to use your statements and actions against you. Adjusters are carefully trained to sound friendly while asking leading questions, attempting to “trap” you into a statement against your own interest or an admission of fault.
Adjusters are also known to pressure bicycle accident victims into hasty settlement offers, which may represent far less than the dollar amount you’re truly owed.
The less you say to the insurance company, the better. Instead, tell them to talk to your lawyer. A Bakersfield bicycle accident lawyer in our office can help.
Never accept an offer or sign any paperwork from the insurance company without consulting a Bakersfield bicycle accident lawyer first.
