Q: Should I call an Attorney before seeking medical attention?

A: No, your health comes first. Also, the value of your case may be significantly reduced if you delay medical attention. You have a duty to mitigate (minimize) your damages. If early treatment could have reduced your recovery time or the extent of your recovery, the insurance companies will use that fact against you to reduce your likely recovery. Lastly, knowledgeable Virginia attorneys will not refer you to a specific doctor, chiropractor, or the like because the fact of that referral will become known to the insurance companies and used against you to lower the value of you recovery.
