Injury Case Checker — 8 Screening Questions

  1. [Contradictions] Does the insurance company's version of what happened differ from the police report or witnesses? Fault percentages, sequence of events, or injury descriptions that don't match the record.

    Why it matters: When the insurer's narrative conflicts with the official record, that gap is leverage — if you document it precisely.

  2. [Insurer Tactics] Have you been asked to give a recorded statement or sign a broad medical release? Blanket authorizations for your full medical history, not just injury-related records.

    Why it matters: Recorded statements and blanket releases are gathering tools for the defense. You are generally not required to give either to the other side's insurer.

  3. [Record Gaps] Do your medical records document every injury and symptom you actually reported? Everything you told providers actually written down, from day one.

    Why it matters: Insurers value claims off the written record. An injury that isn't documented is treated as an injury that didn't happen.

  4. [Record Gaps] Was there a gap in your medical treatment after the incident? Weeks or months without appointments, or skipped referrals.

    Why it matters: Treatment gaps are the most common argument insurers use to cut settlement value. Knowing the gap exists lets you address it head-on.

  5. [Deadlines] Do you know the exact filing deadline (statute of limitations) for your claim? The deadline varies by state and claim type — and some notice deadlines are much shorter.

    Why it matters: Missing the limitations deadline ends the claim permanently, no matter how strong it is. Claims against government entities can have notice deadlines measured in months.

  6. [Insurer Tactics] Has the insurer made a settlement offer before you finished treatment? An early check offered while you were still being diagnosed or treated.

    Why it matters: Early offers usually arrive before the full extent of injuries is known. Accepting one releases the claim — including injuries diagnosed later.

  7. [Damages Proof] Are your lost wages and future care costs documented in writing? Employer letters, pay records, and provider estimates of future treatment.

    Why it matters: Economic damages are only worth what you can prove on paper. Undocumented losses get zeroed out in negotiations.

  8. [Shared Fault] Did more than one party contribute to causing the incident? Multiple drivers, property owners, employers, or product makers potentially at fault.

    Why it matters: Comparative-fault rules can reduce or bar recovery depending on your state. Identifying every responsible party changes the math.
