Signing documents before consulting a lawyer could sink your child's claim. When representatives of insurance companies ask you to sign certain documents shortly after your child has been injured, alarm bells should be going off in your head.
Insurance companies often will parents to sign authorization forms that allow them to access all of the child's medical records. It happens all of the time, and parents often think they have no choice but to do what's being asked of them. Signing an authorization form allows the insurance company to comb through your child's medical records, even those that are completely unrelated to the case. This not only violates your child's privacy, but could yield information that, taken out of context, could hurt your child's claim.
