If you have been injured in a car accident that was not your fault, we advise you to seek the counsel of a Wilmington accident lawyer as soon as possible. You don’t have to handle the aftermath of the accident by yourself.
Should You Give the Insurance Company a Recorded Statement?
It’s prudent to talk to an attorney before giving a recorded statement to the insurance company. If the at-fault driver’s insurance company can prove that you were responsible for any part of the accident, even just 1%, it may try to deny you any compensation. An experienced attorney can explain your rights and advise you on how to communicate with the other driver’s insurance claims adjuster.

What Is Your Car Accident Case Worth?
Car accidents can be as different as cars themselves are, so it’s difficult to estimate the value of a car accident claim without knowing all the details. However, the following types of facts are usually evaluated when determining how much a car accident case may be worth:
- Accident specifics – the who, what, where, when, why, and how of the accident
- Medical care – immediate medical attention provided and possible ongoing care needed
- Lost wages – current pay, as well as future pay, not received due to an inability to work
- Pain and suffering – stress, fatigue, and worry resulting from the accident
- Other factors – such as possible diminished value and punitive damages, and insurance policy coverage limits
