Why You Shouldn’t Speak With an Insurance Company . . . (so fast)

Regrettably, people get injured.  This will require the filing of an insurance claim.  Most people automatically call their own insurance company.  This is wise and legally required.

What many of us don’t know, is that the insurance company for the opposing side prepared to pounce on you.  “Like a good neighbor”, or with “good hands”, or being “on your side”, are a few examples of how they present themselves.
Many insurance companies will go on to state that using a lawyer only costs you, the injured person, money.  In reality, this is against the law.  Insurance companies are routinely and regularly fined for such deceptive practices.

Simple fact is that insurance companies are just that – companies.  They are money making machines.  Their best interest and your best interest do not coincide.
Always speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
