Apparently we have touched a nerve with the TV ads we are running on Cox Cable here in Fairfax County. The point of the message is that if you’ve been in an accident, you don’t need to rush out and hire a lawyer, but you may have questions and you probably are being asked to sign forms, either by an insurance adjuster or by a lawyer.

Folks are calling, so thankful that we are offering two free books The Truth About Lawyer Advertising and Five Deadly Sins That Can Wreck Your Virginia Injury Case. We’ve heard two stories over the last few days of claims adjusters applying high pressure tactices to get people to sign medical records releases and, in one case, a settlement check. In both cases our information caused people to think twice before signing.

In the end, these folks may not need a lawyer–That’s my whole point. But at least now they are armed with useful info before taking on the very experienced insurance adjuster.
