What Should I Do After an Accident?

After an accident, the first thing to do is get to a safe location and call 911. After a motor vehicle accident specifically, Florida law requires you to call law enforcement if there are any injuries or property damage. Your next steps can affect the outcome of your claim, so be sure to keep these things in mind:

• Seek medical attention right away, even if you don’t feel any pain. Some injuries can take hours or days to develop symptoms, so a doctor’s evaluation is essential.
• Collect evidence at the scene. Photos or videos are best, but even a quick sketch of where the accident happened can be helpful.
• Get the names and contact information of the other parties. If someone else was involved in your accident, you should get their insurance information. You should get the names of any witnesses too.

Even if you don’t think you need an attorney for your personal injury case, call our office for a case review. We work on a contingency fee basis, so there is no cost until your case settles or wins in court.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is My Accident Claim Worth?

Each claim depends on the type of accident and injuries. You can claim economic damages, such as medical expenses, and lost wages due to missing out on work. You can also request non-economic damages, which is compensation for mental and emotional trauma, pain and suffering, and psychological stress resulting from the accident.

Do I Really Need a Lawyer for My Claim?

Insurance companies may contact you with a “lowball” settlement offer, or try to pressure you into admitting fault. Even in a straightforward insurance case, it’s a good idea to have an attorney review any documents or paperwork before you sign or accept anything.
