Frequent Questions for Car and Truck Accidents:

• My back was severely hurt in a car accident in San Bernardino. The doctor has advised me that I will need surgery.  Will the other driver’s insurance company pay for it?
• Does it matter that the police report shows that I was at fault in the car accident, even though I wasn’t?
  
• The driver who caused my car crash wasn’t insured.  Does that mean I can’t collect compensation for my injuries?
• The insurance adjuster keeps requesting information that doesn’t seem to apply to my car accident claim. His words were – “I need to review this information before evaluating your case.” Is this one of the insurance company’s tactics I keep hearing about?
  
• Is it true that the insurance adjuster could use my postings on Facebook against me?
• Why is the insurance adjuster putting so much pressure on me to settle? The car accident happened not that long ago.
  
• The insurance adjuster called me not long after my car accident and asked a lot of questions. I provided everything that was requested, but it seems like it is taking a while to settle my claim. What’s going on?
• I was hurt in a motorcycle crash in Riverside.  The insurance adjuster called me and made a comment that basically inferred that I don’t need an attorney and should just accept their settlement offer.  What should I do?

• I was hurt in a car accident in Long Beach, but I did not have insurance at the time.  The collision was not my fault.  Can I still pursue compensation, even though I was uninsured?
