Can I talk to the insurance company and answer their questions or give them a statement?

You can, of course, talk to the insurance company, but as your attorney, we’d advise against it. We ask that you leave all communication with the company to us, so that we can best protect you and your interests. Insurance companies are looking to save themselves money and will seek out any and every angle to lessen their responsibility to you. As such, every time you try to be helpful to the insurance company, you may very well be hurting your own case.
