You are generally not required to give a recorded statement to the other driver's insurance company, and it's often best to avoid doing so without legal counsel. Anything you say can be used against you to devalue your claim.

When speaking with an adjuster, stick to the basic facts: your name, contact information, and the date and location of the accident. Do not discuss fault, the extent of your injuries, or speculate about how the accident happened. Avoid saying "I'm sorry" or making any statements that could be interpreted as admitting fault, even if you're just being polite. Do not sign any medical releases or other documents without having an attorney review them first, as these could waive your rights to future compensation.

If an adjuster offers a quick settlement, be wary. These offers are often made before the full extent of your injuries or damages is known, and accepting them means you waive your right to seek further compensation, even if your condition worsens later.
