Most people feel two things after theyve been in a car accident--or any accident: Fear and anger. As a result, they dont always make good decisions about how to act and what to say in the aftermath. Lawyers and insurance companies know this--and take advantage of the confusion. In this book, an attorney with a successful personal injury practice gives ordinary consumers an insiders advice on what to do and what to say. The book follows a chronological path from the moment an accident takes place through the final settlement of any legal disputes that follow. It deals with various scenarios--most importantly, whether the accident was your fault or someone elses. And it considers the many matters that arent legal--but just as important to someone recovering physically, emotionally and financially from an accident.
