VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:
"Hi everybody! Justin Blitz from the blitz Law Group here here in my office in New York City. I want to talk to you briefly about the dangers of social media media posts if you are involved in a accident and you have suffered an injury. One of the first things your lawyer should tell you is to make sure that you do not post anything concerning your accident on social media.
Here's a news flash for you: the defendants who's going to eventually be compensating you for your injuries they will check social media to make sure that you have not put anything on there that will hurt your claims of injuries. So if you are injured and you are involved in an accident and you have a potential lawsuit, do not go to social media and start posting! I'm not just talking about posts of you dancing on the bar or running your Marathon, I'm talking about posts of just maybe your injuries or maybe you want to complain about what happened.
Guys it is not worth it. You want to make sure that your lawyer is the one doing the talking for you so you do not jeopardize your rights in the future, and the worst thing that could happen is years later when your case is up for trial you have that defense attorney pulling up a social media post that you made that is hurting your right to be truly compensated.
Little tip from Justin Blitz the blitz Law Group signing off."
