Episode Summary
In this episode of Peachtree Injury Talk, attorney Jordan Jewkes reveals the truth behind how insurance adjusters try to deny, delay, and devalue legitimate injury claims. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts—and they’re often rewarded for doing so. Jordan explains how they manipulate claims, push early settlements, and mislead injury victims. He warns against speaking to adjusters about injuries, highlights the risks of handling a claim without legal help, and stresses the importance of hiring a firm with a reputation for fighting back. If you’re hurt in an accident, stay cautious, don’t accept early money, and get legal advice before signing anything.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
