    How Insurance Companies Use Surveillance Against You

    If you’ve filed an injury claim, there’s a chance the insurance company is watching you. They often hire private investigators to conduct surveillance on claimants, hoping to find anything that could discredit your case. In this video, Andrew Iacobelli of Iacobelli Law Firm explains these surveillance tactics and why working with a personal injury lawyer is essential to safeguarding your rights. Many people don’t realize that insurers will track their movements, take photos and videos, and monitor their social media accounts to look for inconsistencies. Even normal daily activities—like carrying groceries or walking your dog—can be twisted to suggest you’re not as injured as you claim. These companies have entire teams working to reduce or deny payouts, using surveillance as a tool against you. That’s why you need an experienced personal injury lawyer who understands these tactics and knows how to fight back, ensuring you receive the compensation you rightfully deserve.
