Recording
a Statement
Record
a statement after you are injured by writing down
everything you can about your accident, including
details of your injuries and their effect on your
daily life, your economic losses, conversations
you had, and lost opportunities.
These
statements can be very useful down the road when
you put together all the important facts into a
final demand for compensation. Notes to remind you
of the details of what happened, and what you went
through, is easier and more reliable than counting
on your memory.
It
is also important not to give to much information
to the insurance company before seeking a qualified
lawyer or filing a written claim. A written demand
for compensation should be sent to the insurance
company before any informal interviews are conducted.
