Offers of Quick Settlements for Accident Claims

I'm frequently asked about whether accepting a "quick" settlement for a minor accident claim isn't better than waiting several weeks or months after the accident.

The problem with a "quick" settlement is that an injured person only gets "one bite at the apple", and if the injury turns out to be worse than first thought....you are out of luck!

To be safe you should wait at least four months after you are symptom free to consider settling your accident claim, even for a minor accident.
