Employing Best Practices While Working With Insurance Companies
Although there are many effective tips and tools that we will employ when we work with the insurance companies affiliated with your lawsuit, there are some best practices you should utilize when interacting with them.
- Read and completely understand your insurance policy. If you have any questions regarding coverage, benefits or what is not covered write them down.
- Verify whether you maintain additional forms of insurance coverage from another company or as part of another type of policy, such as your homeowner policy.
- Notify your insurance agent as soon as possible and share the details of the auto accident and any injuries you may have sustained. Ask your agent any questions that you have about your policy.
- Write down extensive notes during your phone conversation with your insurance agent. Include the agent’s phone number and their manager’s name and phone number for future reference.
- Remain totally honest when speaking with your insurance agent. If you are dishonest and get caught, the repercussions to your insurance policy and future coverage could be serious.
- Keep all photographs and paperwork related to the accident and your injuries in a safe place and provide copies to your attorney.
