Can a Car Repair Check Hurt Your Injury Claim?

After a car accident, accepting a check for vehicle repairs does not always mean you are giving up your right to pursue an injury claim—but it can if you sign the wrong documents. In this LawCall segment, the attorneys explain the difference between property damage claims and personal injury claims, why it is important to read releases carefully, and how insurance companies may issue supplemental payments if additional vehicle damage is discovered. They also discuss the importance of protecting your rights before signing anything.
