Do I Have To Speak To The Insurance Company?
The aftermath of a personal injury accident can be unnerving. If for example you were injured in a car accident, you may be receiving phone calls from an insurance adjuster. People understandably want to know if they need to speak with the insurance adjuster who is calling. The answer is no, they do not have to.
In fact, it is always a bad idea because whatever you say will be manipulated by the insurance company to maximize their chances of paying you as little as possible for your injuries. Of course, they want nothing more than to deny your claim entirely. Therefore, do not play into their hand, and refuse to say anything to the insurance company that insures the driver who caused your personal injuries, until you have spoken with an attorney.
