Why Should You Consult With A Lawyer Before You Talk To An Insurance Company?

First and foremost, insurance companies employ an array of lawyers, adjusters, statisticians and analysts to make sure they protect themselves from claims. Retaining an experienced lawyer prior to speaking with an insurance company can help you avoid pitfalls and misstatements that could lead to minimizing or even forfeiting the compensation that you and your family might have otherwise been entitled too.
