What should I do if an insurance company contacts me after an accident?

The Answer

First, stay calm and be cautious.

Insurance adjusters may contact you shortly after an accident to gather information or request a recorded statement. While they may seem friendly, their goal is often to evaluate and limit the company's financial exposure.

Before speaking with an adjuster, consider:

  • Sticking to basic facts
  • Avoiding speculation about fault
  • Not minimizing your injuries
  • Declining recorded statements until you've received legal guidance
  • Avoiding quick settlement offers before understanding the full extent of your injuries

Once you accept a settlement, you may lose the ability to seek additional compensation later—even if your injuries become more serious than initially expected.
