Should I talk to the insurance company without an attorney after a bicycle accident?

Answer:

You should speak with an attorney before the insurance company because adjusters are focused on minimizing what the insurer pays.

After a bicycle accident, you may wonder whether you should speak directly with the insurance company. The answer is generally no. Insurance adjusters work to limit the amount the company pays, and an unguarded statement could affect your claim. Before discussing the accident with an insurer, contact an experienced attorney.
