Serious accidents can have life-altering repercussions.

If you have been injured in an accident that was not your fault, filing an insurance claim and talking to a personal injury lawyer is often just the beginning of a long, drawn-out process.

Even if you are confident that someday you will be fit enough and ready enough to resume your ordinary routine, traumatic injuries have a bad habit of hounding survivors for much longer than most anyone would anticipate. Physical pain can be both debilitating and disabling. In some cases, it could persist for years after an accident, serving as an ever-present reminder of a time you would rather move past than be reminded of every day.

If you have the law on your side, you should not have to think twice about sitting down for insurance negotiations or taking your claim all the way to court.

However, reaching an agreement is often easier said than done.

You might have evidence, and an at-fault driver or negligent landlord could have admitted that their mistake caused your injuries, but instead of receiving a check in the mail, you could find your follow-up calls unanswered and your emails outright ignored. Even if you receive an offer that seems generous, it may be for significantly less than your case is actually worth.

How Social Media Can Impact Your Personal Injury Case

Published on: September 16, 2025 | By Dietrich Law Firm P.C.

In a world where writing a social media post is often more effective than calling customer support, you may not think twice about taking to the internet after an accident.

Platforms like Facebook and Instagram make it easy to keep friends and family informed and up-to-date on your recovery. You might even be tempted to write a negative review for a negligent landlord or reckless contractor, hoping your experience will help keep others safe.

However, regardless of your intentions, discussing an accident on social media can have serious repercussions. If you file a lawsuit, the defendant’s insurance company will almost certainly scour the internet for new pictures and comments, taking every opportunity to twist your words against you. Without the proper representation, your case could end in shambles.

If your child was seriously injured in an accident that was not their fault, deciding to go to court is often easier said than done.

Even if you are confident that the law is on your side, filing claims, sifting through paperwork, and keeping tabs on a dozen different deadlines is exhausting, especially when your mind is on your child and their future, not insurance negotiations and fine print.

You do not have to choose between your child’s rights and your family’s time to heal.

The cost of health care is only going up.

Year after year, hospital bills and medical debt force more Americans into bankruptcy than any other expense. Even if you are one of the 305.2 million people in this country with health insurance of some type, recovering from a serious injury almost always necessitates some form of sacrifice.

6-10-25-burn-injury-300x200 Most burns happen in and around the home and result from minor mistakes.

However, even when burns are accidental, they cannot—and should not—always be blamed on the victim. In some cases, family friends, property owners, and event organizers assume a measure of responsibility for your safety when they put you near anything that could cause serious injury. If their negligence caused your accident, they could be liable for its costs.
