Title: What should I do immediately after the accident?


1
What Should I Do Immediately After An Accident?
2
  • Have you been injured in a car accident? If so,
    you may be eligible to receive compensation for
    your damages. There are several things that you
    can and should do to increase your chances of
    filing a successful claim. Listed below is
    everything that you should know and do following
    a car accident.

Contact The Police
The most important thing after every car accident
is getting professional help. This includes
calling the police and reporting an accident as
well as injuries. The police will arrive with an
ambulance and provide you and everyone else
injured with proper medical care. If the police
officer approaches you, be thorough and speak
with the office about what happened. Tell the
officer your opinion and your thoughts on the
accident, and how you believe it came to be. The
officer will use your testimony to file a police
report. Later your attorney will be able to seek
a copy of it and use it as evidence supporting
your case. If you think about skipping the
medical check, think again. The most important
thing that you should always do following an
accident is getting checked for any hidden
injuries. You would be surprised by the number of
internal injuries that you could sustain, without
them being visible right after the accident.

Call Your Attorney

    a Los Angeles pedestrian accident attorney and
    schedule your free initial consultation. There
    are many reasons why you should consult with an
    attorney right after the accident
  • The attorney will assess your situation and
    evaluate your case
  • The attorney will help you file a claim against a
    responsible party
  • The attorney will help you investigate the case
    and find evidence to prove that the other party
    caused the accident
  • The attorney can hire other professionals to help
    with your case

Evidence?
  • If you are able to, before you leave the scene,
    take photos of everything. This includes
  • Your vehicle
  • Other vehicles involved
  • Your injuries
  • Other vehicles license plate and the car model
  • The surrounding area and traffic signs
  • Also, take any information from the witnesses
    around the accident. If anyone saw what happened,
    that person could help speed up your case with a
    testimony. Seek that individuals personal
    information and try and convince them to be your
    witness.
