Steps to Take After an Accident
If you were harmed by someone else’s negligence, securing experienced representation is crucial to recovering damages for medical expenses, lost earnings, and other losses. Our personal injury lawyers can guide your steps meticulously throughout the legal process, providing sound counsel to maximize your claim and hold all liable parties responsible.
From car crashes to slip-and-fall injuries, it’s imperative to take the following steps after sustaining an injury in an accident:
- Seek medical treatment: Pursuing immediate medical care after an accident is a vital first step. Even if your injuries don't appear severe, seeking medical attention is necessary to rule out life-threatening injuries, such as traumatic brain injuries (TBI) or internal bleeding, as well as establishing a paper trail of concrete evidence and details regarding the accident.
- Document the scene: If you’re physically capable, take pictures and videos of the accident scene. Be sure to include any hazardous conditions or property damage.
- Collect information: Write down the names, contact information, and license numbers of all involved parties, including eyewitnesses and insurance companies.
- Don’t discuss the details of the accident: Avoid talking about your accident on social media or with anyone other than your legal representation. Any statements made to insurance adjusters or others involved in your case can be used against you.
- Contact an experienced personal injury lawyer: Our Midland attorneys have handled countless cases and are skilled at evaluating evidence, calculating damages, and negotiating with insurance companies on your behalf. We can advocate tirelessly for the compensation you deserve while protecting your rights every step of the way.
