Tips to Prevent Ruining your Car Accident
Claims with Social Media Posts
If you are in the process of negotiating a claim
after a car accident, it is extremely important
that you explore your legal options and know
exactly what you are doing. Did you know that a
simple social media post or tag could ruin your
chances of getting the compensation you
seek? People dont realize how powerful social
media is, and how fast the information travels.
Here are some tips that will help prevent you
from posting something you will later regret.

Avoid Posting Anything on Social Media
From the moment you enter the negotiation stage,
you are in the process of obtaining your
settlement. If you post anything at this time on
your social media pages, be aware that it will be
checked by the insurance company responsible for
providing you with the settlement for your loss.
If by any chance they find anything that may put
your settlement on hold or completely deny it,
they will use it against you. That Involves

Avoid Posting Anything on Social Media
If you get tagged in a post me and my friends
swimming in the pool while injured and in the
middle of the process, the insurance company may
use it against you and say that you are not
injured. Even if you werent swimming. If such
thing ever happens, be sure to immediately
contact the Car Accident Attorneys in Los Angeles
from Law Offices of Howard Craig Kornberg
schedule an initial consultation completely free
of charge, and let them help you fight the
insurance company.
5
Dont Post too Much
Dont post too much on social media. If you post
regular stories and feeds on Instagram, the
insurance company may use it as evidence that you
havent suffered emotional distress, and reduce
your settlement by a substantial amount. Any
picture of you smiling may be used against you.
The insurance company will do everything to
protect its interests, and that involves hiring
someone to check on you, your social media and
other activities.
6
Do NOT Bad-Mouth the Insurance Company
Another thing you should never do is bad-mouth
the insurance company on your social media pages.
It is a sign of bad faith, and they will use it
against you, stating that you are not willing to
negotiate the deal in good faith. This may cancel
all current negotiations you had with the
insurance company.

Consult a Car Accident Attorney
Be careful what you post on social media, as
nothing is private anymore. You agreed to terms
and conditions before making a profile on
facebook, twitter, Instagram, but you have no
idea what those terms and conditions are. You
never know who may be watching or reading your
posts, without you even being aware of it. For
more information, call the skilled Los Angeles
Car Accident Attorneys at Law Offices of Howard
Craig Kornberg and let them teach you how to
avoid these problematic situations and win the
settlement you deserve.
