Immediately following a car accident, focus on your health and safety. Call 9-1-1 if you suffered an injury and need medical care. Get out of the roadway and to a safe place. After you are safe and addressed your injuries, we recommend you follow these guidelines:
If possible, take photos of the scene of the collision, your injuries, and the damage to your car.
Keep copies of any medical records or bills, repair receipts, wage loss, and make records of any related expenses.
Obtain a copy of the Traffic Collision Report from the relevant law enforcement agency as soon as you can, even if the report’s conclusions are not favorable to you.
It is important that you do not admit any fault or sign anything (i.e. any forms from an insurer) in order to preserve your rights. Insurance companies are eager to take advantage of accident victims who don’t know their rights. Their objective is to limit or deny claims payouts.
Contact an experienced car accident lawyer to learn the full value of your case and avoid making any mistakes on your own that the other driver’s car insurance company will seek to use against you.
