Continuing on the topic of red flags to look for when dealing with an insurance company after a wreck, a common practice that they will employ is to try to get you to accept a settlement offer just days after the collision. It may often look like, hey, we’ll give you two thousand dollars for your pain and suffering, and then we’ll also cover up to five thousand dollars of your medical expenses. Do not accept that offer. When you are just a day or two out from being involved in a wreck, you have no idea what the extent of your injuries are. You don’t know if maybe one day on the road, you’re gonna need surgery. If you accept that minimal offer just days after the wreck, you will not be able to hold that insurance company responsible for any additional medical expenses that you may incur over the next couple of years. That is a red flag to look out for when dealing with insurance companies.
