If the trucking company or their insurance contacts you after the accident, follow these steps:

1. Do Not Provide a Recorded Statement: Politely decline to give a recorded statement or discuss the details of the accident without legal representation.
2. Avoid Settling Immediately: Resist any pressure to accept a quick settlement. Early offers may not fully cover your expenses and losses.
3. Document the Interaction: Take notes on what was discussed, including the date, time, and the name of the person who contacted you.
4. Contact an Attorney: Before engaging further, consult with a personal injury attorney experienced in trucking accidents. They can provide advice, handle communications on your behalf, and ensure your rights are protected.

Remember, the trucking company and their insurer’s primary aim is to minimize their payout. Having legal representation can help you navigate these interactions and avoid jeopardizing your claim.
