How to Stop the Annoying Calls From the Insurance Adjuster

How Can You Stop Calls From The Insurance Adjuster Trying to Talk to You After A Car Accident?

You have a lot to deal with after a car accident. Medical treatment and appointments, missed time from work and your family, arranging to get your car repaired. But there’s another thing you didn’t expect – the bothersome calls from the driver’s insurance company after the accident.

First, Should You Talk To The Other Driver’s Insurance Company?

You should not speak to the adjuster if you have a serious injury, and here’s why. That insurance adjuster has been trained to get a statement from you that they will use to minimize your injuries later. They want to talk to you as soon as possible before you have focused on your injuries and recovery, while you are on medication before you know the true extent of the damage.

They want you to make a mistake. To be caught off guard. Maybe not fully explain what happened (yes, they will cut you off or re-direct their questioning so you don’t have a chance to fully tell your story – that is the last thing they are interested in). And the transcript of this interview won’t show that.

We’ve seen people in the hospital or heavily medicated because of their injuries who can’t remember, are too tired, or are in too much pain, to give the insurance company the full, accurate picture of how the crash occurred and the extent of their injuries.

And like everything else in life, it’s important to get your case off to a good start – by doing the right thing, and not making mistakes that the insurance company will use against you (that is their job, after all – and they are good at it).

Don’t be one of those people.

We Don’t Let the Insurance Company Talk To Our Clients After An Accident

You shouldn’t speak to the adjuster until you know a lot more about the process, what they are after, how they will use the personal information you give them, and why they will send you a form allowing them to get all of your medical information from birth (really).
