Do I have to accept what the insurance company offers me for an injury claim?
Asked in Arlington, TX - about 1 year
Very soon after a car accident, I was offered what I thought were pretty generous terms for an injury claim. Do I have to take the first thing offered to me? .

In fact, a common tactic by insurance companies is to offer fast settlements in hopes you do not hire an attorney. Once you accept the settlement and sign the Release, you can't come back for more money.
