Blue Springs, MO Auto Accident Lawyer Warns: Agreeing To A Recorded Statement May Ruin Your Accident Claim

If you are looking for a fair settlement, be careful about giving recorded statements! The Blue Springs, MO auto accident lawyers at Kansas City Accident Injury Attorneys explain:

Insurance companies, like all businesses, want to make money. So if you have been injured in a Blue Springs traffic accident, one of the insurance company’s main objectives is to minimize the amount of money it must pay you for your injury claim. Insurance companies have had lots of practice and they are very good at minimizing the extent of your injuries.

One way that insurance adjusters try to minimize your claim is through recorded statements. A few days after your Blue Springs accident, you will receive a telephone call from the insurance adjuster; the adjuster will immediately ask to make recorded statement. Don’t agree; this could ruin your accident claim.

One reason the insurance adjuster calls only days after the accident occurred is because the insurer wants to speak to you before your injuries have been diagnosed and before you have had a chance to speak to a Blue Springs, MO auto accident lawyer. The adjuster is fishing for information that may be used to build a strong case against you later. In fact, he will answer vague or misleading questions in order to get that evidence. Anything said in a recorded statement is admissible evidence in a court of law.

You are under no obligation to give a recorded statement. If you decide to, speak to an experienced Blue Springs auto accident lawyer first. The attorney will listen to the questions and to your answers and make sure that your claim is protected.
