Q:
Is it true that not going to the emergency room after a motorcycle accident can hurt your auto insurance claim?

A:
The truth of the matter is that anyone involved in a South Florida motorcycle accident should go to the emergency room to get checked out for health concerns and potential injuries. It is always better to be safe than sorry. Sometimes injuries do not occur until days or weeks later.

If you wait a long time to seek medical care after your motorcycle crash, the insurance company will attempt to settle your case for less. That doesn't mean that they will actually be able to settle your case for a lesser amount, but they will attempt to. They will use the delay in medical treatment against you by saying that the injuries you sustained did not come from the crash.

They will use anything they can to minimize your settlement claim. If you are not getting the compensation you deserve after your South Florida motorcycle crash, you should contact a Fort Lauderdale accident attorney at Chalik & Chalik at (888) 539-5297.
