What Not to Say to an Insurance Adjuster
What you say during an insurance claim becomes part of the record.
Some statements unintentionally create confusion, delays, or disputes.
Why Words Matter in Claims
Statements may be:
- documented
- summarized
- referenced in reviews
- used in denials
Casual comments can take on procedural meaning.
Common Communication Mistakes
Problems often arise from:
- speculation
- assumptions
- unclear timelines
- emotional statements
- inconsistent descriptions
Clarity protects claims.
