Start with complete information
Collect policy numbers, claim numbers, adjuster contact information, photographs, reports, repair estimates, medical records, and receipts.
Track every communication
Maintain a dated log of calls, emails, documents requested, documents sent, and deadlines given by the insurer.
Understand what you are signing
A settlement release can affect future rights. Broad authorizations may permit access to records beyond the accident treatment. Seek legal advice when you do not understand a document.
Avoid unsupported promises
No website or service can guarantee coverage, liability, settlement value, or timing.
