Our Approach in Personal Injury Cases
What To Do If You Have Been in a Car Accident
If you have been seriously injured in a car accident, it is important to understand your legal rights, and to speak with an experienced personal injury lawyer. You should understand that the other drivers’ insurance companies — as well as your own insurance companies — may have interests that are different and adverse from your own. Do not speak to any insurance company representative without first consulting with an attorney.
If you or a loved one has been in an accident, our car accident lawyers will take steps to help prove liability (who was at fault) and seek to maximize your personal injury compensation. Your attorney will review all insurance policies covering medical bills, lost wages, residual damages, disabilities, past and future lost earnings, pain and suffering, disfigurement and loss of quality of life.
As your case proceeds, we will conduct "discovery" to gather information from the opposing party. During this time, make sure that you have the best medical treatment possible, and properly document your injuries and their effect on your life.
Rules of Conduct at a Car Accident Scene
If your car is involved in an accident, do not leave the scene of the accident. If you do not stop for an accident, you may be subject to criminal penalties. Instead, you should take the following steps:
- Call the police — If you have been the victim of someone else's negligence on the road, contact the local police department immediately. Calling the police department is especially important if you feel any pain or injury as a result of the accident.
- Leave your car where it is — After a collision, if it is safe to do so, do not move your vehicle until the police arrive. If your vehicle is obstructing the flow of traffic, try to move your vehicle the shortest distance possible from the place of impact.
- Exchange information with the other driver — The other driver's information will be necessary for your attorney to begin the process of representing you in your case. Make sure to get the driver's name, address, phone number, driver's license number, insurance company name and policy number.
- Use the offered ambulance services if you feel any pain — If you do not seek treatment for injuries immediately, you may be providing damaging evidence to the other driver that will be used in court. If you feel any discomfort, go to the hospital for treatment and tests.
