http://www.maritimeaccidentattorney.com If you work offshore and have suffered a maritime accident or injury, it is important that you never agree to give a recorded statement, no matter how much pressure you feel. Any recorded statement can and will be used against you, and it is critical that you protect yourself. However, another way in which insurance companies can hurt your injury claim is by collecting co-worker recorded statements.
Just as they will approach you in a friendly and professional manner, maritime claims adjusting companies will approach your co-workers for recorded statements. Of course your co-workers will likely answer their questions, not wanting to get in trouble with the company and thinking they are doing no harm to your injury claim. However, claims adjusting company agents are skilled statement takers, and they may twist co-workers' words to hurt your claim.
