🚗💥When is it worth it to get a lawyer after a car accident?

🔍 Minor Crash vs. Major Case

"Can't I just handle this myself?" Maybe, if:

✅ No one's hurt

✅ Damage is under $2,000

✅ The other driver fully admits fault (and their insurance agrees)

But you NEED a lawyer if:

🚨 You're injured (even "minor" whiplash can cost $10k+ in medical bills)

🚨 Fault is disputed (their insurance says it's YOUR fault)

🚨 A big company is involved (Uber, Amazon, trucking companies have deep-pocket lawyers)

💸 Real Talk: The Money Math

TikTok user @InjuredButWoke shared:

• First offer from insurance: 5,000∗∗•Afterlawyergotinvolved:∗∗5,000∗∗•Afterlawyergotinvolved:∗∗37,500

"That paid my rent for a YEAR while I recovered," she said in her viral video.

1️⃣ “Signing too soon is a big loss”

Took a 3,000 settlement only to find out a spinal injury required 20,000 in treatment

2️⃣ “10% liability ruins everything”

Because of the state's “50% fault rule”, the other party decided that I was 10% to blame and didn't get a penny of compensation.

3️⃣ “Circle of Friends caused me to lose my lawsuit.”

I posted a short video saying “I'm fine” and my insurance company denied my claim.

1.Film FIRST - Get 360° footage before cars move

2.Say THIS to cops: "I need medical evaluation first"

3.See a doc in 48hrs - Delayed pain = $$$ later

4.Hashtag carefully - #CarCrashVictim = adjusters watching

💡 Pro Tip: Most lawyers work on contingency - you pay $0 unless they win. Free consults take 15 mins!

"Tag someone who needs to see this! Most wait too long and lose $$$." #CarAccidentLawyer #InsuranceHacks

Remember: Insurance isn't your friend. Their job is to pay LEAST. Your lawyer's job? Get you MAX.
