How do I keep from diminishing the value of my claim?

There are a number of pitfalls that any personal injury victim should avoid during their claims process. One of the best things you can do to protect the value of your claim is to avoid writing comments about your accident on social media. It is best to avoid social media as much as possible, because if you appear to be doing well physically and emotionally, the insurance company can point to this as evidence that you are not suffering and therefore pay you less in economic damages. Another important thing to do is to keep all receipts related to your injury and recovery so that you don’t lose evidence of any of the economic costs you have incurred.
