The BD&J Story

Taking Cases to Trial

Transcript

Shawn McCann: There are really two kinds of law firms in California: those that will work up and try and settle a case, and those that will actually try the case. Some law firms, if it gets close to trial, they’re going to run. They’re going to send the case to someone else, or try and settle it. Selecting an attorney that will actually take it all the way through trial and has the knowledge and experience and the resources to do that is really important. At BD&J, we work up the case, and we’re ready to try it. We’re willing to try it. We have the knowledge and experience to try it.

All About Insurance Companies

Transcript

Shawn McCann: Often, when someone comes to see us, they tell us a story about what has happened to them and someone else doing the wrong thing. But when we talk to the insurance companies or the corporations, they often immediately blame our client, even if they’ve done nothing wrong. Through our investigation, and our follow-up case, we can often show that our client didn’t do anything wrong, and the insurance companies and the defendants are just refusing to take responsibility for their actions.

Kevin Danesh: So initially, an insurance company will give you a call, and they’ll just act like they need to get some basic information from you. But that initial call goes from basic information to, “Well how did the accident happen? How do you feel right now? Are you going to go to the doctor?”

And while they seem like very innocuous questions, there’s no big deal, they’re recording all of that. You might say something to an insurance adjuster, like, “you know, my neck hurts, but I think I’m going to be okay.”

But then two days pass, three days pass, and the pain gets worse and worse. They don’t remember the fact that your pain got worse. They’re going to play that little snippet that says, “My neck hurts, but I’m going to be okay.” And they use it all against you.

So I strongly recommend any time you get into an accident, whether it’s your own insurance company or the other side’s, do not pick up that phone call. Don’t say a word. Let us handle it, and we’ll make sure everything’s done right.

Why An Apology After an Accident Could Hurt Your Case 

It may feel counterintuitive, but never apologize after a car accident. Even a polite “I’m sorry” can be interpreted as an admission of fault, damaging your future legal claim. Instead, maintain a neutral tone and avoid discussing your injuries or the cause of the crash with other drivers.

In California, you may still be entitled to compensation even if you are partially responsible. Filing a claim ensures negligent parties are held accountable. Protect your rights and maximize your recovery—schedule a free consultation with a personal injury attorney in Los Angeles at BD&J today!
