This mistake does not happen a lot but does happen and makes resolving a case very difficult. People sometimes get rude with the insurance companies or make incredible “demands” on the insurance company, like “pay me a million dollars or I will call the local television station.” These sort of outlandish comments made by the injured person, all things equal, make an insurance company flag the file. In all likelihood, this sort of evidence does not come into evidence in court but it makes the insurance company not like the injured person and that does ultimately make an amicable resolution more difficult. While lawyers can explain your rights and the law to you, lawyers are also trained to be diplomatic, which I believe makes resolving a case more practicable.
