  1. Why should I Provide a Recorded Statement about my Car Accident in the Court?

  2. After a car accident, assuming that you are a victim and the one who ended up suffering injuries and property damage, you have the right to seek compensation for your damages. To do so, you should always start with calling the police and seeking medical attention, for the following reasons: ● The police will arrive and craft a police report, one that you can use in your favor ● The doctor will help you with your injuries and write a report, one that you can use to prove your injuries

  3. It Can Be Used Against You One thing the police taught us is that “everything you say can and WILL BE used against you”. This goes with everything you say when it matters. So, when speaking with the insurance adjusters, if asked to provide a recorded statement, you may say things like “I am sorry” or “I did not mean to do it” or “I am probably guilty for…”, and those things will be twisted, used out of context and used against you by the insurance company.

  4. Speak with your Attorney First Remember that they have no power to force you to say anything or record anything that you do not want. Regardless of what they say (they usually ask for a statement or threaten to deny you your claim), do not provide them with a recorded statement unless you speak with your attorney first. If you do not have one, consult with a Pittsburgh Car Accident Attorney Jonathan M. Stewart and schedule a free consultation, with no obligation of hiring any of attorneys.

  5. If In Court, Provide Them With A Statement ● Following are include in your Statement: ● Who caused it ● Where it happened and at what time ● Who was in your vehicle ● Names of any eyewitnesses (if any) ● Damages to your property ● Injuries sustained ● What you think caused the accident to happen in the first place

  6. How Court Examines your Statements? The court will examine your statement, and if the facts are the same as the one in the evidence you gathered and presented, your recorded statement could and will be used in your favor. Speak with Jonathan M. Stewart - an experienced Pittsburgh Car Accident Attorney at SMA Law Group right before the trial to learn a few things about how you should record your statement and what things you should say and in what way. Remember that you do not have to provide the insurance company with your recorded statement, but if the court asks for it (and even if they don’t), you should provide them with one to increase your chances of obtaining the settlement you deserve.
