After an accident, insurance providers will usually attempt to
contact you for a recorded statement, often even when you are still in the
hospital. You are under no obligation to answer their questions, and it is
inadvisable to do so without representation.
While your insurer may seem like they are interested in your
wellbeing, their questions are often intended to get you to say something that
will help them to reduce your compensation or get you to drop your claim.
This is why it is important to contact a professional motorcycle accident attorney as soon as possible after your accident. Rather than answering your insurance provider’s questions while in a vulnerable position, it is best to refer them to your attorney, who will be better able to protect you during these situations.
