What Not To Do After a Florida Slip and Fall Accident

A Florida slip and fall accident can leave you with a devastating injury and wondering who will pay for your mounting medical expenses.

One of the first things that might come to mind is to file a claim, especially if the accident was a result of someone else’s negligence. Keep in mind that the strength of your case will determine how successful you are. With that being said, there are three things you should “not” do following a slip and fall accident.

First, if an insurance adjuster contacts you, do not immediately give them a recorded statement. You should wait until you have sought legal counsel.

Also, regardless of the circumstances, never admit that you were at fault. Admitting fault could drastically reduce the chances of a successful injury claim.

Lastly, consult a St. Petersburg personal injury attorney before signing anything. Keep in mind that the insurance adjuster does not work for you. You need someone who will have your best interest in mind.
