Car accidents can put a person in shock.  Do you know what to do after an accident?  Being prepared can help you stay calm in an emergency.  Following these steps can make the claims process simple and help you get the money you deserve. 

Steps to Take After an Accident:

·        Check for Injury – The first thing you should do following an auto accident is see if anyone in your vehicle or the other vehicle needs medical assistance.
·        Move to the Side – If your vehicles are blocking the road, move them to the side to a safe position.
·        Call 911 – Call the police to file an accident report.
·        Exchange Information – Get the insurance information and drivers’ license numbers of the other drivers involved in the auto accident.
·        Document – Take pictures with a camera or cell phone of your vehicle damage, the scene of the accident, and any injuries.

If you have recently been in an auto accident, the first thing you should do is get the medical care you need.  Notify your auto insurance provider, get a copy of the police report, and have your claim reviewed by a personal injury lawyer.  This will make sure that you are being treated fairly by your insurance company!

Have you recently experienced an auto accident?  If you or a loved one is suffering from a personal injury due to a car accident, proper documentation can help make the claims process simple and ensure that you receive the settlement you are entitled to.  Here are a few tips on how to help document your personal injury for an auto accident claim.

Documenting Tips:

  • Photographs – Take a picture of any damage to your vehicle.  Several close-up and long distance shots can make the claims process simple.  You can also take pictures of the location and any injuries.
  • Medical Records – Take note of any pain you are experiencing.  If you are visiting the doctor, keep records of all of your visits.  Keep all correspondence, including emails.
  • Save Receipts – Keep receipts for all of your medical expenses, including prescriptions, crutches, walkers, canes, foods, and co-payments.
  • Expenses – Maintain records of all of your travel expenses for medical appointments, as well as how much income you have lost due to your injuries.
