If you have been seriously injured in a car accident, your case requires immediate attention.  One or more insurance companies may pressure you to give a recorded statement or accept a quick settlement in exchange for a release of all claims.  You should not do any of these things without first consulting with an attorney. 

A ‘Release of all Claims’ will usually include all injuries arising from the accident, including unknown injuries that may arise in the future.  It is unwise to negotiate your case before you have recovered from your injuries and completed your medical treatment.  This is especially true if the accident caused a serious head injury, brain injury, or other permanent injury such as scarring. 

There are specific time limits for filing a claim or suit.  The statute of limitations can vary depending on many factors including the location of the accident and the type of vehicles involved.  The statute of limitations for a motorcycle accident, for example, is different than for injuries suffered in an automobile. It is important to speak with an accident attorney in your about the statute of limitations in your jurisdiction.
