Auto Advice For You
Anyone who is hit by a car, or in any type of personal injury auto accident, should strictly follow the doctors’ medical care advice. Not only is this important to not make your injuries worse, but by not following the advice of your doctor you can damage your legal case.
Disregarding medical advice could make it harder for your personal injury lawyer to argue a solid case against the opposing legal party. Furthermore, if you win the case, not following medical advice could reduce the settlement amount that you will receive.
