Never give a recorded statement after a crash. Here’s why. The insurance company’s business is to minimize their responsibility. They want to minimize responsibility, what they pay, how much they should pay, when they should pay, so anything you say to them, they’re going to use against you. They’re trained, there are classes and courses you can watch on YouTube that are training courses for insurance adjusters to minimize the insurance company’s responsibility.
You shouldn’t be surprised. I’m not surprised when I discover this. That’s why they want to get a recorded statement as soon as possible. In Wisconsin, if they ask for a recorded statement too soon, then you can fight and say that it’s not admissible in court. Long story short, just simply don’t give a recorded statement until you talk to an attorney so we can look through all the facts and make sure that what you’re saying is in your best interest.
