Steps to Take After a Car Accident

After any type of vehicular collision, it is important to immediately contact one of our experienced lawyers for assistance. Additionally, if you want your case to be as successful as possible, there are a few steps that should be taken during and after the incident:

• Call 911 – After a crash, your primary priority should be to ensure everyone's safety. By promptly phoning emergency services, you will be able to receive immediate medical aid for anyone who was injured. You can also make sure a report of the accident will be filed, and this can provide helpful evidence if litigation will be needed to address your injuries and damages.
• Gather information and evidence – It is unlikely that your attorney will be able to travel to the accident scene, so it is up to you to collect as much information about the incident as possible. This includes collecting contact information and details about insurance policies from all individuals involved, documenting any property damage or injuries sustained in the accident, and taking photographs of the vehicles, the road, and other relevant details.
• Do not admit or discuss fault – Regardless of what happened before, during, or after the accident, you should refrain from expressing any form of apology or admitting that you may have been partially or fully to blame. Make sure to avoid admitting fault when speaking with law enforcement officials, witnesses, or other drivers involved in the incident. Even a seemingly harmless apologetic statement can detrimentally affect your ability to secure full compensation.
• Receive medical treatment – Even if you do not think your injuries are serious following a car crash, it is critically important that you visit a doctor. Certain types of injuries can take hours, days, or even weeks to fully manifest their symptoms, and the rush of adrenaline that you experience in the immediate aftermath of a collision may make you unaware of how you have been affected. To ensure that you receive adequate care and can fully document the extent of your injuries, you should see a doctor as soon as possible.
