What you innocently tell an insurance company can be the difference between a check or a fight. Our Georgia injury law firm has seen it happen to the most honest people.
The Wall Street Journal reports that in accident, homeowner claims and even health insurance, what insurance companies hear makes a difference. The example is the driver who naively says "I'm sorry" at an intersection collision without even thinking about who was at fault. Those two words can mean an insurance denial even though the other driver was responsible.
Think before writing or speaking to an insurance company. Assume that everything is either recorded or written down because it is. Or, contact a lawyer who understands how insurance companies work before you make an honest mistake.
