Never Hide Your Personal History From Your Lawyer

It's absolutely crucial that all injury claimants be very truthful and upfront with their attorneys. I know it sounds obvious to instruct people to tell the truth, but it's a natural inclination for all people to hide some of the not-so-flattering facts about themselves. With all of the online resources available today, almost any information regarding your past is easily accessible by the insurance company. All of the major insurance companies subscribe to large databases which record every injury claim brought by every person. For instance, if you had a car accident case 10 years ago and you claimed a neck injury, you must assume that the insurance company on the current case has all of that information at its fingertips.

Also, information regarding any criminal proceedings is public knowledge. With a simple search of certain criminal databases, insurance companies can easily find out the details of any criminal history you may have. Most of the time, any criminal background will not become admissible in a court of law and is basically irrelevant to your claim. This being said, it's still important to be upfront about your criminal background because lying not only makes you look bad, but it casts doubt on the truthfulness of everything else you say. Juries will hold you to a high standard and refuse to award money to anyone who lies or misrepresents things.
