They know that once you accept, they are off the hook if it turns out you need additional treatment or care. Some of the most common tactics that insurance adjusters use when it comes to an injury case include:
- Developing a personal relationship with the injured victim
- Requiring a recorded statement from the injured victim
- Requiring unreasonable proof of lost wages
- Pressing the injured victim to accept a quick settlements
- Delaying the settlement to discourage the victim from continuing
- Failing to disclose the full available coverage that the victim deserves
