Construction Accident Investigation

Question: Should I talk with the insurance company of the construction company?

Answer:

If you’ve been injured at a construction site in Texas, one of the things that may happen is the company may hire a lawyer to come talk with you or an insurance adjuster may want to come talk with you. If it’s somebody from the Workers’ Compensation insurance, you should have somebody on your side. Those insurance professionals are not your friend. They’re trying to help the employer that’s paying the premium. The company’s lawyer is not your friend. They’re there to protect the company. You should be cooperative, but you should be cooperative with somebody right by your side, taking care of you and your interests, not theirs.
