Hidden Figures
My parents taught me to be wary of anything that seems too good to be true.
Like when you find a great deal on airfare, concert tickets, or a phone plan only to discover the final cost inflated by unanticipated fees. The same can happen with personal injury awards without the guidance of a qualified attorney.
After an accident, insurance companies often offer quick payments to keep victims from consulting a lawyer. The settlement may seem fair on the surface. However, it rarely considers the creditors or lien-holders waiting for their share of the check.
Let me explain.
Silence is Golden
How many times have you watched a police drama and found yourself talking to the screen? An innocent character with nothing to hide is tripped-up by supposedly casual questioning while you yell at the TV, “Just wait for your lawyer to get there!”

Relying upon caution and counsel are good strategies during an interrogation. The same is true after being injured in an accident. In both instances, you have the right to remain silent.
Visiting Texas and Involved in a Car Accident?
Back when I was single, I remember driving on one of our local highways one Christmas morning. I was on my way to my parents’ house and traffic was light. I came upon one of our many DFW highway interchanges that takes you what feels like 500 feet in the air when a car in the far left-hand lane swerved across 6 lanes of traffic, pulled directly in front of me, and then slammed the brakes. Thankfully, my cat-like reflexes took over and I didn’t slam into him. Okay, so I don’t have cat-like reflexes, but I did have a huge adrenaline rush and stood on top of my brakes. After politely wishing him well as he must certainly be lost in my mind, just like all of you reading this would do I am certain, I looked down to see his license plate. It was from…NEW YORK CITY (you have to read that like they said it in the old Pace Picante Sauce commercials – #getarope).
