When someone’s been in the car accident, their world’s been turned upside down, their cars are damaged or destroyed so they don’t have a way to get around. They have medical bills and they don’t know who’s responsible. They may be out of work. How are they gonna get their lost wages paid? And they’re hurt and they’re in pain.

They say don’t talk to a lawyer, just tell us everything about it and we’ll take good care of you. That’s never a good idea. Their mission is really to get information from you that will help them defend their claim. They’re very skilled at what they do more and more. I strongly advise you, if you’re in an accident. Get an attorney to represent you, and do not speak to the other side. You are under no obligation to do so.
