Car accident myth number three
is that the seat belt is really only about the law. No, the seat
belt is about your life and body. Sixty percent of vehicular
injuries and deaths could have been prevented by simply buckling up!
Car accident myth
number four is it is not going
to happen to me! The truth is if you travel by car to get from place
to place, you will most likely be involved in at least one serious
car accident during your lifetime. The question is not if it is
when!
Car accident myth
number five is that if there is
an injury I will know it immediately. The body possesses a mechanism
that allows us to function even in the presence of injury.
Additionally, many injuries do not have any symptoms until after the
passage of time. If you have been in an auto accident you owe it to
yourself and your family to get immediate medical attention.
Car accident myth
number six is that my own
insurance company will represent me! Insurance companies are in
business to make a profit and your car accident does not
represent a profit! They may have to pay to get your car fixed, but
they will want to see you get the cheapest parts possible. You may
have medical insurance on your auto insurance policy, but your
company is going to want to limit the medical care you receive. What
should you do? Get a car accident lawyer!
You can guess what Car accident myth number
seven is in my mind! I do not need a personal injury
lawyer! Well, the insurance adjuster is a trained professional
whose only job it is, is to pay you as little as possible. He is
trained, hard nosed and has the checkbook! You must have an
experienced personal injury lawyer in your corner fighting
for your right to the money settlement you deserve. If you want a
fair settlement get a lawyer!
Car accident myth number eight
is that every lawyer is a personal injury lawyer! Personal
Injury law is a unique area of the law that requires special skills
and experience. If you break a bone you don’t go to any doctor you
go to an orthopedic surgeon. Make certain you see an attorney who
has dedicated his practice to representing injured victims
like you!
