What will the adjuster ask me and why?
The questions follow a pattern once you know what they're for.
About the crash: speed, distance, where you were looking, whether you saw them, what you did. These build comparative fault — and after 2023, pushing your share past 50% eliminates the claim entirely rather than reducing it.
About your injuries: what hurts, how much, whether you're better. Early answers become the baseline against which everything later is measured.
About your history: prior accidents, prior injuries, prior claims, prior treatment. The purpose is to attribute your condition to something pre-existing.
About your activities: work, exercise, daily routine. This supports later arguments that you weren't as limited as claimed, often paired with surveillance.
About treatment: who you've seen, gaps, whether you followed recommendations.
None of that is improper. It's a claims investigation. But understanding what each question is building toward changes how carefully you'd answer it.
Every question is building toward something. Knowing what changes the answer. ---
