Personal Injury Representation

1. Stay calm. Do not admit fault.

2. Be safe. As much as you reasonably can, move your vehicle out of the road. Put your hazard lights on.

3. Call the authorities. Insist they come out; law enforcement may not respond to accidents unless there are injuries.

4. Don’t say that you are not injured. We see clients over and over again insist they are not injured and as soon as the adrenaline wears off from the accident, they start feeling severe pain and end up having serious injuries. Let a doctor decide if you are injured or not. Always get checked out by a competent medical provider.

5. Exchange information:

• Name
• Address
• Phone number
• Insurance company
• Policy number
• Driver license number and license plate number for the driver and the owner of each vehicle.

6. Document the accident. Write a brief written description of each car, including year, make, model, and color including the exact location of the collision and how it happened. Also be sure to take pictures of the scene, accident, and injuries.
