Personal Injury Claimant Lost $20,000 for Info Posted on Facebook

Seattle personal injury attorney Chris Davis warns clients to be careful of what you post on social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace after one of his client’s cases was devalued $20,000 due to pictures and video posted on Facebook of the client engaged in snowboarding activities after claiming a permanent back and neck injury.

Insurance companies are watching what personal injury claimants post on Facebook and other social websites for evidence to include comments, pictures, and videos to prove or disprove the severity of a claimant’s injuries. If you have a pending personal injury claim, be mindful of what you post on your Facebook, Twitter, or MySpace page as what you would perceive as completely harmless may be taken out of context and held against you in your claim.
