Protect yourself and your future claim by not speaking with your insurance company until speaking to a lawyer at Langston & Lott first. Inform your insurance provider you will communicate with them after consulting your attorney, especially if it is a personal injury claim. Your lawyer can manage the claim while you manage your health and recovery.
What to Do After an Accident
- Get checked by a professional. Some injuries manifest later than an injury such as cuts or a broken nose. Consider the potential of head trauma, organ damage, or nervous system damage as possible reasons to visit a doctor if no visible injuries appear.
- Record the medical care you receive after the accident. Records can be used to build a case so you may receive the compensation relating to your injury.
- Advocate for your health. Prioritize your health and make this clear to your doctors that your health is your priority after the accident. When your health could be at risk, don’t be concerned about health costs. The personal injury team at Langston & Lott may be able to help with the financial aspect of your recovery.
- Return to the doctor. Follow-up appointments are essential for your continued healing and future well-being, and these appointments may also help your case by providing additional documentation.
- Contact your insurance provider by phone, website, or app, and file a claim. Additional information will be required if you are filing a personal injury claim. Keep all documentation about your medical assessments to yourself until you’ve spoken to a lawyer.
- Protect yourself and your future claim by speaking to a lawyer first. Your insurance company wants to maximize and retain profits. While your insurance provider may claim they have your best interests in mind, this may not be entirely true. Inform your insurance provider you will speak to them after consulting your attorney.
- Don’t talk about the details of your accident or health with others. Don’t apologize for your accident. Before discussing the accident in detail with others, speak to a professional about compensation possibilities. You may be entitled to financial compensation to help rectify the situation.
- Keep notes and a file on the accident. Compile all notes and documentation in one central location. The file may include medical statements, police reports, insurance claim information, driver and witness information, and personal entries documenting the incident and the accident’s effect on your health and lifestyle. Bring this documentation to your attorney meeting at Langston & Lott.
