What should I do if I or a loved one is in a serious car accident
Here are some important tips if you are involved in a serious auto accident:
- Call 911 to report your accident.
- Move your vehicle and loved ones to the side of the road to avoid injury from passing motorists until first responders arrive.
- If possible, exchange contact information with other drivers, motorists or witnesses at the scene of the accident.
- Receive medical attention as needed.
- Take photos and video of property damage, serious injuries or medical treatment.
- Contact your insurance carrier to report the accident.
- Contact an experienced personal injury law firm to evaluate your case. If possible, contact a personal injury attorney, even while you are receiving medical treatment. The earlier you contact an attorney the more likely you are have a successful outcome.
Contacting an experienced law group like GTH will give you peace of mind knowing you have expert legal counsel guiding you through the legal process and protecting your legal rights.
