While it is important to seek treatment immediately after a maritime injury accident, it is also important not to exaggerate the extent of your injuries.
If you claim to be more hurt than you really are, more than likely the insurance company will find out and pay even less than if you had been honest.
Getting caught in a lie can kill your case. For example, if you injured your shoulder on the job and claim that you can’t work because of it, and then you are caught helping your friend move furniture, you could ruin your case. Get the proper treatment but also be honest about it to yourself and your doctors.
If you or someone you know has been injured at sea, contact Jones Act attorney Brian Beckcom at 800.724.7800 to learn your rights.
