Anyone who was not at fault can have a car accident injury compensation. At least once on a life time someone is experiencing a situation like that. It is essential that one understands how to recover medical expenses and being compensated for motor vehicle repairs.
Below I am going to provide you a list of tips that can help you to deal with this stressful situation:
The first thing that you need to do is to record your injuries. If it is severe go to a local Hospital E.R. and have them evaluate your injuries. Hospital will have a permanent record of your injuries and doctors will also be able to take care of you if you your life is in danger post accident trauma. If nothing is broken and hospital discharged you your next step would be to find a Doctor of Chiropractic who is Specializing in Soft Tissue Rehabilitation after motor vehicle crash. The last thing you need is to find a reputable personal injury attorney who will protect your rights and interests. Call, Email, Twitter, or Facebook us and we will provide you a name of reputable attorney. Often time insurance companies contact injured party directly and tried to settle with them for a minimal amount before patient begins to feel the pain from a car accident. If you retain an attorney for your case insurance company will have no legal right to call you directly because you are represented by an attorney. So, if you do get a phone call from them just tell them this is a phone number of my attorney and talk to him or her about my case. It is that simple.
It is beneficial to inform your insurance agent about your car accident and get a claim number from them. However, in many cases your attorney will do all that work for you anyway. It is a good idea to call Police and have them write a car accident report. Get the a police report in 10 business days after the accident. That is the usual time it takes for the report to be ready.
Use your cell phone photo camera to record car damages and all visible injuries on your body. Also make a picture of the vehicle that was at fault. It is great evidence when your attorney will try to settle the case when the time comes.
If there are any witnesses around, get a name and their contact information. In case of a dispute these people can prove that this car crash was not your fault. Also do not forget to exchange the information with the driver of the other vehicle – contact, insurance info, plates, car year, make and model, driver’s license.
Send the bills for your medical care and vehicle repair to your attorney or if you don’t have one send to the 3rd party insurance. Do not discuss any details about your automobile collision except your attorney. Make a note how many days you missed at work due to this unfortunate event.
