The insurance adjuster wants me to give a recorded statement about my motorcycle wreck. Should I give one?

A: It is best to consult with a personal injury attorney prior to giving a statement to an insurance adjuster about a motorcycle wreck. In many cases, the insurance adjuster will initiate contact within a couple of days after a wreck. Because some injuries may remain dormant for several weeks, giving a recorded statement about the accident and any known injuries may result in an inaccurate assessment of your claim by the insurance company. This may lead to an unfair settlement offer. If you retain an attorney, the insurance adjuster will work with the attorney, rather than directly with you, to come up with a settlement.
