A personal injury lawyer will help you get the money you deserve. Do not try to deal with insurance companies on your own. They will try to convince you that you will not win a lawsuit. They will try to get you to sign a release in exchange for a cash settlement.Once you sign a release you will not be able to bring a legal action against them for that accident and injury.

If you've been in a low impact automobile accident I have some important information to give you in the next couple minutes. It's common for anyone who has been in an auto accident to downplay their injuries (even if they're hurting quite a bit) because there wasn't much damage to their car.I've seen my patients fall victim to this notion for years. And I've also seen auto insurance companies use it as an argument to cut off treatment for patients, even though they know better.The truth is the auto insurance companies are a business like any other business. And like any other business their real interest is their bottom line. So they'll do what they can to discourage accident victims from spending too much insurance company money.So what are the facts? If you had a minor accident, is it possible that you were injured? Well don't take my word for it. Let's here what the scientists and researchers have to say.Let me quote Rene Calliet, MD, author of 17...more
