Young & Nichols maintains a skilled staff to assist you with insurance disputes and property damage issues. The insurance companies are trained to control and dictate your settlement and what you should do. You should see a doctor immediately and not let an adjuster talk you out of seeking medical attention. Always remember:
DO NOT give a statement to anyone, it is evidence that can be used against you.
DO NOT sign anything without our advice, it could be release and end your lawful right to collect in the future.
ALWAYS consult an attorney if you are injured in an accident. Your own insurance company may be your enemy, even though you are bound to work with them.
When in an accident, always call our information hotline for a free consultation at: 866.327.9661.
